Description
This is part of my Sacred Heart Series. This is Sacred Heart No. 6. I painted this while I was actually having heart issues. I had to have a heart procedure, so my own heart was definitely on my mind. Most of my Sacred Hearts have been contemporary, and this one is the most contemporary in that I completely veered away from most of the typical sacred heart symbols, instead making this a more surreal painting using the human heart itself as the sacred heart, thinking that Christ came incarnate, in the flesh and in fact had a human heart. Also, I used the bleeding hearts to signify that Christ's heart bled for us, and in his sacrifice it was a beautiful thing.
