Why the asymmetric heart logo?

It may seem as though my little asymmetric heart logo has no meaning or that I might have chose it simply because it is 'cute'; however, it actually does have sentimental value. At first I thought I wanted a conversation heart as my logo...get it? neatart4ursweetheart? It was a clever idea but it wasn't really me. After thinking about it for about a month I realized my logo was right in front of my face! I decided to model my logo after my first and only tattoo.

Statistics show that about 20% of individuals who have a tattoo regret it...I am not one of those individuals. Which is surprising considering a good friend did it for me a couple of days after my 18th birthday. I love my tattoo, it is a part of me and I get compliments on it ALL of the time. I think it is dainty, artistic, and feminine.

Now that I have explained where I got the idea for my logo I need to explain how I got the idea for my tattoo...

I was a teenager in love. Everyday during 1st period I would write my boyfriend letters and sign my name with the same asymmetric heart. I had an obsession with asymmetric hearts. They aren't perfect but whose heart really is? My boyfriend made me realize how much I 'wear my heart on my sleeve'. I have always been EXTREMELY emotional but had never been in love like I was with him. Eventually my high school sweetheart became my husband and I love him now more than ever!

This simple little heart represents so much of who I am.

What I am working on:

• Two paintings for an old friend's handsome boy and pretty girl. [Jungle theme and butterfly theme.]
• An under the sea themed custom painting ordered for a baby shower.
