Makayla Hardy "Dark Heart"

9 in, Acrylic Paint, 2023

My idea was to make a simple scary Halloween character. I got the idea from the month we're in because since it's October, it's a scary season. Something that inspired me to do this was how I was always scared of scary movies and would always be paranoid but, now god is always by my side so I'm not scared anymore. 

My process was me paint Ghostface and an all-black background Ghostface did not look good at all so I kept the background and added red to the black and white and made a grey and red heart. I used Acrylic paint for this.

This artwork means love or human love. I would want my audience to think it's improving. There is symbols that just mean dark love and spiritual love.

Most difficult for me was making both sides even.  I didn't overcome the struggle but it's okay. If I did this over I would change the shaping.

The style of this art is non-objective. What makes it unique is the colors.  What I love about this painting is how simple and cute it is.
