Description

There are many sign languages: Indian signs, sign languages for the deaf in America, Canada, France, Mexico, and other countries. There are mathematical signs, symbols for science, computer icons ... they are all different. But there is one sign that represents love in any language, and that is the heart. It doesn't matter where you live or in what language you speak. The language of love transcends all barriers. The heart is the bridge to understanding, the connection between souls. The young couple that stands at the altar of marriage, the old man who holds his wife's hand as she passes into the afterlife, the teenager whose hands tremble as he pins the corsage on his prom date ... love at many levels, but love all the same ... the heart knows.
....................................................................................................................................... This painting is mixed media - water color, acrylic, pen and ink. The result is the merger of a colorful image that represents the love between two people that share their hearts.
.................................................................................................................................. Contemporary, modern, pop ... all descriptions of the style - but all in all, it is happy and free, no matter what stylistic tag you put on it.
................................................................................................................................ .... Hold your hands in front of your chest and touch the backs of your fingernails and the "pads" of your thumbs together. You've created a heart, just like the one suggested in the painting. The movement itself creates a memory that you can easily remind yourself of with just a single hand motion - it's a universal sign. It's LOVE.
................................................................................................................................. This image is available on canvas, as a framed print, rolled print (you frame), giclee, metal print, acrylic print, poster, greeting cards. These may be ordered through Fine Art America and are shipped within three days after purchase.
........................................................................................................................................... The most intimate message of all is the one you send to the person you love: "You hold my heart in your hand." Buy it for yourself or "heart someone" and buy it as a gift.
