"It's All about the Heart" Series Launches

 


This series is so special because it is about the heart which is a popular icon traced to 10,000 B.C. Egyptians believed that it was the center of life & mortality.  Ancient Greeks held the heart to be the center of the soul.  The Romans viewed it as the single most vital organ for sustaining life.

The heart...no other symbol conveys affection and warmth of spirit like the heart. This mixed media collection is made up of hearts made from alpaca, Teeswater sheep, merino wool, paint, and wire. A friend, Debra Flagle who owns an alpaca farm, contributed these scraps. Debra makes beautiful scarves and hats. 

The hearts can be found at MAGallery in downtown Madison and also can be purchased by contacting me at ritaknight18@gmail.com
