V-day Painting (not the edible kind)

Something about Valentine's Day rubs me the wrong way. Maybe it's all the pressure it piles on to prove how much you love someone, or feel bad about not having found love yet, or worse—realizing you don't love the person you're with. Ok, Debbie Downer—wah waaaaaah! 

BUT I do love love. And presents. And flowers. And the color pink—red's not bad either. So, maybe it's time for a change of heart.

While jewelry always makes me smile, I think something a little more colorful is in order.

This makes me so happy and energized. I'm thinking dining room? Bedroom?

Oil painting, "Died Pretty" by Todd Hunter 

Lots of pop but really soft at the same time. Probably the only pink painting I could get away with hanging in a house with three boys.

A very calming piece with...wait for it...METALLIC GOLD PAINT! dying.

I mean, it's cake. Sold.

McMuffin, if you're reading this—no pressure (lots of pressure).
