The heart shape is a beautiful shape. I have been putting it in paintings for many years. This painting is assembled and in this piece, I made the "canvas" into a heart shape, and then did the painting inside the heart. Since love means accepting joy and sorrow with equanimity, I made the woman's expression to show both. The heart in this painting also represents the sorrow of the African American people, and the joy the African American people express through their intense creativity. The original painting is watercolor, pastel, pen & ink.
