The gown featured a custom fabric & feather piece, which was added to the sketch.

The lovely green shoes where moved to the other side of the compositionn& placed on a small box instead of a table.

The bouquet will now be featured in the painting!

This wedding dress portrait will include a calligraphy quote which is meaningful to the couple,

The next step is to decide on the placement of the writing within the composition.
