When I decided to create a heart art painting for this year's "A to Z Blog Challenge", I selected a 24" x 48" canvas for the project. I also pulled out a large art pad and planned the art hearts for each of the 26 letters of the alphabet. Today's heart, painted with acrylics on canvas, is the first of those creations for "So Many Hearts Dancing in the Air". I'm excited and looking forward to a big new painting different from anything I've done before to be finished in my studio at the end of April.
I apologize to visitors who were expecting travel blog posts here. The call to create art was far too strong, and I could not resist it.

I love acrylics - so vibrant. Great way to start the AtoZ.

Beautiful and vivid! Is your medium going to match the letter of the day too?! That's just awesome.
Best,

What an interesting endeavor! I look forward to seeing more throughout the month!
Your artwork is beautiful - no apologies!
This is what I love about the #Challenge, finding new sites, and being a part of your new approach from A to Z. Have fun. FYI: I started with YOU because we share close numbers on the participate list. Come and see what I am up to if you have time.
Mary,
Great and unique post! I love the heart! I'm looking forward to seeing/reading the rest of your posts.
If you get a chance, please stop by my post! I'm new to this and I'd be so very grateful for any feedback.
Thanks,

Hi Monti - there you go - your heart calls and you followed the right passion ...
Me too - I'm looking forward to seeing your full canvas at Z ... cheers Hilary
Natasha, Nilanjana, thank you for your comments. Acrylics starts with A, but I won't be able to find 26 different painting materials for my work that start with the letter of the day. Great idea, though.
Thank you, Alex!
Stepheny, thanks for visiting. Sadly, I couldn't find your post for today. Maybe another day.
Bathsheva, thank you! I stopped by to visit.
Hilary, thanks for your visit and comments!
Beautiful painting for "A" and a great start to the challenge :)

Love it!
I struggled with the heart tugs in my latest release. Detective Quaid and his struggle to survive the elements, the accusations, but also the loss of his love. I'm enjoying your creativity! Happy A to Z - ing!
Thank you for posting for the A to Z!

This is excellent! i love the heart and the 2 tones that, to me, represent the aching heart...as if broke in 2 just from the colours on the heart. love the background also-wonderful!
Love the colors in your piece--such a stark contrast between the red of the heart and the blue background.
Beautiful. It looks 3D.
Very nice!
