Artist's Comments

Full view, please!
Edit: I added color to the symbols. Not taking over the image, are they?

Paper Heart, in select theaters August 7th

Edit II: Changed the font and the layout a little. Love it, hate it?

I might fiddle with this a little more, so some criticism would be much loved. XD

I don't know whether to keep the men and women, or the speech bubbles. Please help me decide on these? D=

The background heart I actually drew on 18" by 24" piece of paper. =F So it's HUGE (and I love it, might frame it).

Uhm, basically, the hearts in the bigger heart are meant to say "Hey, love comes in a lot of shapes and forms!".

I love it! The men, women and speech bubbles give it a very intense meaning. I also love the heart design.

Haha, danke. =D

I might fix the female symbols, though. =F They're looking a bit off to me...

I say remove the speech bubbles if you must remove one of them. Because the people are very powerful, and the speech bubbles are more like subtitles for those who don't get it.

=F I just didn't want people to think it was promoting polygamy or something. Which is an "offensive" topic (I think). Then again, I guess the same could be said for homosexuality, but they did that movie on that gay politician....so yeah. o3o

Hm, well maybe then you should keep the bubbles. I think most people are more open to homosexuality then polygamy.

Don't worry. I think it's a strong message, but the speech bubbles are easier to understand, but do it in the same bold colors as you did with the group of people.

Great message, though the speech bubbles we're a little hard to recognize (to me), they just kind of blended in with the heart design. Maybe add some color to the symbols?
Its a great heart design by the way, cartoonie and intricate and it makes the simple piece stand out.

Great job!
