Burning Heart (Wild at Heart)


Burning Heart, 40x30, acrylic on canvas, 2015


In 2013, I showed one of my burning heart paintings and a young teenage girl asked me what it meant.
"It's a symbol of passion," I explained.
"That could be good or bad," she said.

This take on that old symbol that has roots in Christianity and that can be as pop as Valentine's Day is wild and reckless. The special metallic and irridescent acrylics bounce back at the viewer. It reaches out and draws you in at the same time.
