"As You Wish"
Upcycled vintage art by Heather Castles

"What is this? Are you trying to trick me? Where's the sports? …Is this a kissing book?"
–Kid

This Australian landscape had such a romantic feel, I knew it would be the perfect place for Westley & Buttercup. I know the story takes places in Floren... but this choice of landscape is my nod to Vizzini's monologue about Australians!

Before adding in the amorous pair, I painted the sheep out of the landscape. Then I got the giant magnifying glass out and put on my reading glasses and spent a decent amount of time carefully painting their very tiny faces! I liked this pose best, the tender moment before they kissed... because when I watched it as a kid, I always had the same disgusted thought "They're kissing AGAIN!" 

The vintage print was collected in Melbourne, Australia while visiting for my brother's wedding! The print had faded in places, so in my alteration I adjusted the colours a bit as I painted to work with those areas sun had kissed it.
