Day 9 Heart Bundle

Today I scribbled on a heart I photographed then put a bow on top. Presenting a heart bundle. . . then I searched “heart bundle” and nobody is using this term much except heart surgeons. A “heart bundle” search took me to a “bundle branch block” diagnosis at the Mayo Clinic!

Bundle: “a collection of things or quantity of material tied or wrapped up together.”

Two words that aren’t used together often in everyday language, heart and bundle.

To me, this means hearts wrapped together. A heart bundle. Sending some out to the Universe wouldn’t hurt.

Day 8- Behind Every Heart

Heart No. 8 by Mary Gow
Heart No. 8 by Mary Gow
Don’t miss the little heart in the upper left corner. This bold black lined heart is vibrant and alive. Maybe with a legion of little hearts cheering it on? Maybe a solo heart with a little admirer? However you want to interpret the little heart and big heart is up to you. Make up a story that’s empowering. Or enjoy the art as is, no story needed. No words. Just heart.

Believe in your heart that you’re meant to live a life full of passion, purpose, magic and miracles.”
― Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

Day 7 Two Individual Hearts

Day 7 Heart by Mary GowNow on day 7, here’s another painting I created in watercolor and adjusted the look of it with filters.

These two hearts don’t beat as one.

They are two individual, healthy, thriving and separate hearts.

Day 6 “Purple Heart” by Mary Gow
Honoring Veterans who have preserved our freedom. Here on Day 6 of my One Hundred Hearts Project, this is a heart I painted in watercolor and then pushed further with digital tools. This is a special day that comes around once a year, yet the benefits of the service of our veterans we enjoy every day. Thank You Veterans!
