An artist who dreamed of being a father from a young age has hand-carved a stunning swan-shaped cradle to hold his babies. The result of his labor is a unique legacy that represents a father’s love and care.

Full-time artist Hannah Weidmann, 31, is married to Jake Weidmann, a self-taught artist, calligraphy expert, and the youngest Master Penman in the world—one of just nine remaining today. Together, the Weidmanns have three children: Emma, 6, Henry, 5, and baby Eloise.
