Wow Sydney, such a cool picture, and I love the idea behind it that connects you to your sister and then more broadly to the experiences you had belonging to a church community. This is really lovely. The hands look so realistic! It’s wonderful to bring attention to such a small childhood gesture that at its heart really represents some of the core values of good relationships.
I love the picture you made and why you chose the techniques, Sydney! I also grew up in a religious environment and spent so many Fridays at the local youth center and Sundays in the church. Although I’m not active in the Christian community now, I still feel so at peace when visiting the church. It’s also interesting how one of my close friends have that exact motive of the pinky swear tattooed on her arm. She got the tattoo while we were on a road trip with my friends from high school so it also made me really happy to see.
What a cool painting! The pinky promise is quite iconic as a symbol of trust that isn’t so easily captured by the image of a church.
