Description My fiance and I decided that we are going to have an art nouveau/ neo-victorian themed wedding, and so I thought it would be nice if I made some Alphonse Mucha inspired portraits of us to use on invitations and whatnot.

I drew out and inked the image by hand and colored in photoshop.

this is beautiful! I love the idea, and I love the style- and for a minute there I thought this was a  wedding portrait for John and Yoko- you are seriously talented

Absolutely beautiful. I was curious if paid, would you do something like this for me and my fiance. Please let me know what you think.

Thank you,
Avory

Really well done. If I may do a review, I would not have put the glasses

Fair enough. But they were my wedding invitations and my husband always wears glasses and without them it wouldn't have truly portrayed him.

I can't believed I missed seeing this. It's very lovely and very accurate in depicting the style of Art Nouveau (as many have said before me). The only thing that isn't Art Nouveau to me is his glasses but that can't be helped.

Wow! Awesome! I really like the muted antique color scheme, and the way you've softened the features on the faces.

Congratulations! I wish you guys the happiest!

Thanks! I looked at a lot of Mucha and he kept a lot of colors subdued, so I ran with it.
Planning a wedding is just another excuse to showcase my handiwork as far as I'm concerned. Oh. And celebrating love. Hahaha.

The invites, the centerpieces, the bouquets....etc. I figure, if I can make it, why pay ridiculous amounts of money for other people to do it.
