No Valentine, No Problem I've Got You Covered

It's almost Valentines and even though it comes once a year, it almost always catches me by surprise.

Frankly, I'm usually left pondering the question, didn't we just celebrate the New Year?

This year though, I managed to get a handle on it without it sneaking up on me unaware and I'm dabbing a few hearts here and there with my paint brush and pad.

So just in case you're like me Valentines date-less, hubby isn't into the whole red rose and chocolate idea, I'm sharing hearts filled with warmth and love and kindness so you too can feel a part of this cultural and commercial tradition of love and romance.

Here's the first heart from start to finish.

Heart #1

A new heart just in case the other one wasn't in your taste maybe you'll prefer this red heart with a dab of yellow and lilac.
