Absolutely love this beautiful piece of art I asked @laurajaynehaltondesign to do for our Bobby present for Christmas. It is wonderful to have something special and so symbolic of how we feel two and a half years on. A huge thanks to @laurajaynehaltondesign 💕

The most special artwork that I've been asked to create so far. A piece that was created from a story of heartbreaking loss, emotion, remembrance, life's extremely tumultuous trials & challenges but most of all about unwavering love, the kind that transcends everything and helps to carry you through the darkest of times. A lighthouse to help weather the storm, a steady guide to help light the way. .

That was the imagery that came into my mind when I chatted with the amazing woman who came to me to create a piece for her and her family. A painting to place in their home that brought a little peace and tranquility. The lighthouse represents their beautiful baby boy Bobby who they lost just hours after he was born. He is there every day with them and I couldn't help but admire their strength and resilience,
how they keep his gorgeous memory alive and part of their lives every day. None of us know the struggles that people are going through, all we can do is be kind, be sensitive and be there when we are needed. And be careful with our words, especially around the subject of babies because absolutely nobody knows what struggles people may have faced, or are currently in the midst of. ♥️ I'm so proud to have been trusted with creating something that will be so special to this fabulous family, and thankful that they are happy to share their story to help others. One of my proud moments of 2018
