The Heart Of A Poet
2018
Pen on paper
Jaundré M. van Breda

Here is my response to Metaphors of a Bad Poet by @fernando.lubezki

I myself am a writer of short fiction and the occasional poem, so I can relate to this particular story/letter.

I did this illustration in gel- and ballpoint pen on A3 paper. Unlike most of my art, this one features some color. Red, blue and black look great together in most compositions.

One of the main themes of the story/letter I noticed is love. A heart is the typical, somewhat clichéd symbol of love. I created my own, more detailed version of it.

Here is a look at the making of The Heart Of A Poet:

It's certainly a heart full of obscure details. It's great, thanks for participating in the initiative.

Thank you for the opportunity.

Heeeeeeeey so good man! This is like the heart of a cursed poet, it's tenebrous, it's a little scary, but I understand that you have many feelings there in full emotional battle. I like the concept, thank you for illustrating it for my story, I send you my good vibes!

Thank you! I'm glad you like it.

Thanks for using eSteem!

It is a beautiful heart, but I wonder if the layers around the heart symbolizes guardedness? Beautiful design, and the inking is very nice <3 Love the use of blue and red colours also <3 A really thoughtful piece * ___ *

Thank you, Lise. My art is whatever the viewer finds in it.
