This Week's Art Project: "In some countries it is still a tradition for kings and queens to have their own unique family crest. Create such a crest for you and your spouse. You may or may not already know what some person you never met designed for your family’s last name hundreds or thousands of years ago. These are a fun piece of history to have, but I am suggesting creating a relevant crest that represents the two of you. If you have children, you can design a separate one that includes them, but this week is just about the king and queen of the castle. There are many different ways you can do this: use computer clip art, hand draw it or even use pictures from a magazine or your own personal photographs. You could even have a professional artist draw it for you if you can afford it. If you can sew, you could even create one out of cloth (such as a quilt-type crest) or thread (such as an embroidered or cross-stitched crest). You can look at existing family crests (yours or someone else’s) for ideas but try to be specific in using symbols that represent the two of you. "
This is the crest I created to represent our marriage.
