There is something almost defiant about painting a heart this red. Not romantic-red — urgent-red. The kind of red that doesn't ask permission. Happy pt.5 is the fifth in a series of seven, and across all of them I kept coming back to the same obsession: what happens when you strip everything away and just leave the heart there, standing in its own light? Here, a pale, almost tender pink heart sits against a field of deep, burning red — and somehow, that contrast says everything I needed it to say. Soft and fierce at once. Vulnerable, yet completely unmoved. I made these paintings for Valentine's Day, yes, but honestly they are for every day you need reminding that love is still the loudest thing in the room.
