Description
The heart of Christmas
Like love
Grows wherever it is planted.
Inspiration for this image came from a holiday tradition:
LJ and I collected hearts throughout our relationship, and each year we always put a new heart-shaped ornament on our Christmas tree. Family and friends would also give us heart ornaments, so over thirty years we had quite a collection covering the tree, including heart-shaped lights and heart garland. It was a glorious sight and symbol of our love that grew from one tiny heart.
Credits: Created in Photoshop CS, using a photo of our first heart ornament, a background from my wip Organica pack, sparkle brushes by Antje, Cold As Ice Background by ilona/Bez, and Winter background by mmebutterfly.
I'll be going to Calif this year to spend Xmas with my family. Wishing all my R'osity friends a holiday filled with love.

This looks like a painting. The feel of it is deep. I tells me that with pain comes beautity. And that is not quiet what I wanted to say. Powerful work. Really brings the emotions forward.
