Solidifying the identity (logo with princess and frog) the client brought into the design process was instrumental in bringing the clients dream and vision to life.  The scene has personal memories for the client in the form of the adored sunflowers, the resemblance of the little princess to someone special, and the general look and feel of the scene which tells a story. The main character is an inspiration drawn from a photo client sent me, and her look alike celebrity Nicole Kidman.  The boutique inspiration came from photos of clients retail store, shots taken of the outside and the inside of the store which were embellished with creativity. The fairy tale castle theme was added to the top, the bottom, the cute wishing well in the foreground, the wispy flower vines, and the pretty colored sky and clouds.
