A gift to my adorable and awesome grandparents for their 50th wedding anniversary :3
To Leo, who came over on a rice barge or something from China when he was 19, spoke no english, and managed to graduate from Northeastern U and MIT in Mechanical Engineering~ To Helen, who remained in school despite the 50's era, majored in Biochemistry at Boston U and turned down a government job in DC to stay here with her new family~ I snagged their wedding album as reference for this - so much poofy hair and fabulous heels! I added the Chinese dress as it was a combination Western style and traditional wedding and the butterflies represent young love and an undying bond I can't even begin to imagine what it's like to be in love with someone for that long, but I'm sure glad they did ^^ - - - - - - - - - - open canvas & pscs2 - 4-5 hours strawberry smile smoothies - 3 - - - - - - - - - - |

 reports, 1d 23h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.68 Inspirational Photography Desember*Sortvind

In a really bad bind.
Sometimes, saying sorry just leads to half-assed forgiveness.
I especially love the black and white, it reminds me of yin and yang *quote from avatar'
Something I really like but feel weird about commenting on is the lighting and colors, it just has a old vintage feel to it.
