Mini Graffiti Hearts Painting, Third Time Is A Charm!

Mini-hearts-painting-pastelsIf this looks a bit familiar to you, it is! I shared this painting a few weeks ago here, where I also described how it was painted. Honestly the colors just were not working in our home, so I decided to keep on painting tiny hearts, this time in colors that would work and phew, after another couple hundred or so hearts that covered up the previous hearts, a new pastel version of my original mini graffit hearts painting was born! So this technically is also a recycling craft, I just can’t get away from them!

We don’t have any holidays on the Jewish calendar that involve giving heart shaped cards and the like, but since a large part of the English speaking world does, all the heart items made for that holiday in China make it into our stores as well, and folks use the heart for birthdays, weddings, or just because. So, this heart painting is a “just because” and because I just couldn’t resist painting a whole crowd of tiny hearts, one more time! I painted tiny hearts on a box, on milk cartons and in my journal, so actually painting on a canvas seemed like the next logical step. And who knows, maybe I’ll have to give this as a gift to hang in a baby’s room or maybe it will live in my kitchen shelves art gallery. Okay, lets take a look at the previous versions of this painting, just for fun, shall we?

The very first version which I actually really love, but this would also not fit in with the decor or colors in my home! This is something I can always recreate if the need arises, as I have now painted so many mini hearts I could probably do it in my sleep!

Happy heart painting!
