Surrender

The colors in this piece are so bold and crisp and encouraging. This is beautiful little abstract painting. The ripe red suspended heart hangs from a pretty ribbon that has been hand-tied in a lopsided bow. And a single word is tucked in the upper right corner. It reads, "Surrender."

I am hopeful this unusual piece will bring a colorful bit of magic to the home of some fellow romantic out there.

How Surrender was created... I used palette knives and wide soft brushes to create the rich expressionist painting behind the heart. And I used tiny 18/0 spotter brushes to paint that beautiful heart and the ribbon and the word.

Surrender was painted on a gallery-wrapped canvas with .75" staple-free sides. This piece would look wonderful displayed unframed directly on the wall. Or it can be easily and affordably framed as it required no matting or glass.
