Happy Valentines Day

When two hearts beat as one--the sentiment for these graphic style paintings which incorporate the use use of heavy impasto oil paint as well as enamels in silver and gold.  These are two 18x24" paintings that were painted in this theme about 8 years ago probably for a show where they would be appropriate like Valentine's Day and I was thinking about the new McMansion people down the street who are young and might like a painting like this.

So the first one titled Two Equals One has a white and red background with cascading hearts intertwined with the title 2=1.  It is outlined with silver and gold enamel as are the hearts.  The central fields of red that glow with various shade of dark red to warm glowing reds is also transected with a gold  X design.  It has a metal brushed gold floating frame.

The second one titled Forever Together or Love You More has a black and red background with cascading hearts intertwined with the central feature of intertwined bands representing either two worlds or wedding rings.  It has a heavily textured application of paint and is outlined with silver and gold enamel.  The central fields are of passionate or hot red.  It has a metal brushed gold floating frame.
