Artist Insights: Angelic Candlelight
Hallmark sat down with Joanne Wright to discuss her adorable Angelic Candlelight ornament.
Angelic Candlelight releasing at Ornament Debut next month is a follow-up to last year’s ornament of the same name. Like last year’s design, it uses Keepsake magic to imitate a real candle by lighting up and flickering!
.
Oakley
Of her inspiration, Joanne described, “I love the flickering light candles you see everywhere, and I have always wanted to create an ornament around that kind of ‘magic’. My little great niece, Oakley, was my inspiration and model for this cute, charming angel. Getting the attitude and gesture just right was important, so it helps to use a model…especially one you love so much. Her playfulness and mischievous ways were perfect for this year’s Angelic Candlelight angel.” (more…)
