Heart Tree by Marianne Mathiasen

Valentine's Painting Project

By Marion Boddy-Evans, About.com Guide

Valentine's Monthly Painting Project © Marianne Mathiasen 2003, 21 x 27 cm, watercolor and acrylic
From the Artist: "I send a forest of heart trees for my love, in the hope that love will grow, and last till we get old."

From the Painting Guide: I think this is a beautifully romantic image, with the suggestion of hearts in the leaves and the hope of growing together through the seasons like trees. If the leaves had been more definite hearts, the effect would've been spoiled, too in-your-face.
