Ketubah this..


Wiki def.

So my first freelance job from my senior project. Hopefully a good start to a steady side job. Since people seem to want to get married in any economic climate. 

A ketubah is a form of visual representation of the marriage agreement between a Jewish man and woman. Or respectively to any two partners that want something to represent the agreement of their commitment to each other.

Here is the tradition form. Some are still made like this...






But there is now a niche almost for this kind of artwork. One that is far more expansive then I could have imagined. For some ideas and inspiration I found alot of unique and magnificent katubah's at this site


On another note I'm buidling sketches and ideas to hopefully get some patterns and small projects together for portfolio use.

Along with that I have the chance to show my work to Carolrhoda publishing. It so happens there is a link between my boss and the Carol part of the Carolrhoda name. Small world. 
So tomorrow will be a day of getting a proper portfolio layout to present to them!
