My first commission

I finished my first commissioned work this morning.
Due to shipping issues, I had to use a loose canvas, which is a new experience for me.

My client fell in love with one of my big canvas paintings "Let your love shine bright" (60x80 cm), but wanted to take it to her holiday apartment on Cyprus. I had to be a little creative and paint on loose canvas, roll it up on a cardboard roll (75 cm), wrap it in bubble wrap so it could fit in a suitcase. It will be framed on Cyprus.
The painting measures 65x105 cm.
