Jing & Allan Wedding Portrait

Done as a wedding gift to my college thesis adviser at the University of Santo Tomas College of Fine Arts and Design. They were married on November 2014, and I got invited to contribute a portrait, since they were doing an “art exhibit” theme for their wedding. Here, they are illustrated as super heroes, using their initials as motifs for their costume design.

I also made individual version of their portraits.

Previously: I made her a portrait last April 2011 (about 3 years before this project) as way of thanking her for helping me with my thesis.
