this was the beginning of an envelope to go with the stamp that has the word LOVE five times and each O is a heart, in rainbow colors. i drew that first red heart and did not like it, then i drew the orange one and it was too big, so, i did the rest of the hearts just to find the right colored markers. i knew i had to figure out a way to make better hearts. they were just too clunky colored in. so i used the small tip of the brush marker to make outlines (that's what you see in the center column. the third column shows the outlines colored in, but leaving some white space. i think they look a lot better when they have a little white highlight and are not so cookie-cutter boring. i hope i can inspire some people to rethink drawing simple shapes. they do not have to be perfect.
