Description
On May 25, 1963 my parents married at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in south Oklahoma City. In a few weeks after this posting, my parents will celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary. Fifty years....a long time. They are a tribute to the institution of marriage and true meaning of commitment between two people dedicating their lives to each other. One would only have to look at them to see how it should be done, though I can testify myself (from personal experience) that marriage isn't always easy. They, however, make it seem so. This painting will be presented to them at their anniversary party. It's safe to post ahead of time, as they aren't really big web surfers, and more than likely won't see this before then. However, if you know my parents, and see this before their anniversary, please do NOT tell them!

Jeff, this is beautiful -- has a great 'feel' to it. Something about the light . . . Happy Anniversary and congratulations to your parents. Sounds like they're lucky to have found each other!

I like the muted color scheme. Great work. :)
Jeffrey Kolker replied:
Thank you Natalie. The goal was to give it an aged look, as if it had been painted years ago. Hopefully I got it right ;)
