This commissioned painting was deeply meaningful for my clients. So meaningful that it took me a lot of time to decide upon my final composition. I really struggled with the placement of the dove within the confines of the specific size of the painting. I went through many arrangements before settling on positioning the head of the dove dead center in the composition. Although, this is typically not ideal, I arranged the rest of the elements to form a pyramid composition and achieve a balanced look. Thankfully the clients were very pleased!
