The Black Heart

The definition of Black Heart is a woman who is as wicked and evil as the worst of your nightmares, who you do not want to anger, because when she’s angry, she kicks people in the passenger seat out of moving cars. Not cool.

In the painting, she wears the Legion of the Black Heart medal on her uniform. Blackheart is also a fictional demon in Marvel Comics, created by his demon-lord father, Mephisto, from the energy of accumulated evil. Also not cool.

This painting was a companion piece to another painting in the Portfolio titled The Black Hand. Both paintings received first-place awards in juried competitions. They’re a couple. If you’d like to see how they looked together, just scroll to the bottom of the page.

The photo to the left is from 1st Dibs, one of the online galleries that Reeves works with. It shows the pricing of the painting before it was sold. When I picked up my paintings from the gallery, it wasn’t there, so they paid me for it and I took home its companion piece. (See photo for sale information) Dimensions: 30 in x 40 in.
