Artist
Thomas Blood
Medium
Painting - Acrylic On Canvas
Description
A giant heart of stone, set atop a rocky island, stands out off the shore of some sea or ocean with a turbulent sky and crashing waves all around. This painting is based off of another one that I created back in the mid-90s called, "Heart of Stone". That painting featured a combination of airbrush and acrylic and had mannequin-like people being drawn towards a giant heart of stone out in what seemed like a desert type setting. I always loved the concept but was not very fond of the execution so I decided to re-visit the idea, this time setting the giant heart out on its own, surrounded by waves and water. This is the second time that I have explored a brownish-yellowish sky and it adds a sense of drama to the overall painting. I wanted the stone itself to appear worn, yet smooth while maintaining a real stone-like look. Everyone has heard of someone who may have a heart of stone and perhaps even encountered such a person in their life. This literal interpretation of the expression is a startling image and one that I enjoyed creating!
