A commission completed last year as a birthday present from one of these girls to the other. Their story is so sweet it was an absolute pleasure to work on a piece for them. They have a shared love of Jane Austen so this is them, reading Austen in period costume.

If you are interested in the process for this piece you can see it over on my tumblr

this reminds me of my nieces, who are both austen fans, and interestingly looks a little like the girls in the picture.

Love it! I wish I could chat about Austen while in period clothing on a bench swing. Y'know, without getting stared at. :P

man, me too. Unfortunately living in texas limits the options on period dress. We've pretty much got renfests and civil war reenactments. I guess I could just wear period costume around, like a boss, and damn the stares.

I once knew a guy in Austin that wore head-to-toe Victorian costume. He even smoked cigarettes imported from a London company that had been around since the 1800s. He was a bit of a snob, but he definitely owned it! :D
