This heart is 1x1cm in size in a sea of dozens of hearts I painted on a 12"x18" sheet in a variety of colors for a childrens'/playroom piece. I had painted them and walked away for several hours. To my surprise, when I came to check the piece, my eye immediately caught the small red heart in the top center with what appears to be a 6-8 week baby in the womb. This was remarkable because I had not done anything to influence any watermark pattern but yet...I saw this tiny baby.
This piece was painted two days after the anniversary of learning our 4th child had passed away in the womb--he had passed away around the same gestation as what that tiny heart appeared to display. It has since been a sweet reminder of our sweet baby, Micah, as well as his sister or brother we lost 10 years ago now.
