"Truly, Madly, Deeply...Love"
For some reason, I get on these kicks to create "Heart" work! Maybe it's because I have a son who was born on Valentine's Day. I also seem to find "heart" shaped objects everywhere I go, and I get inspired.
Last year, I found this frame with the tin attached, at a summer market. It appears to be an old ceiling tile that they stapled to the inside of the frame. It was the ideal inspiration, as I love combining old “things” and new artwork. I knew this would be perfect for what I was thinking about creating with the hearts. I created a piece of art (heart) for each individual tile. They are respectively titled "truly", "madly", "deeply", and "love". The pieces were constructed on 1.5" deep cradle board and attached to the tile. They are coated with a glossy resin, which makes the colors "pop". On the bottom of each piece, I added an antique chandelier crystal...well, because I just love some bling and it seemed like that was just what this piece needed.
This piece now has a home in England, but commissions are welcome.
