A painting created to celebrate joy, color, and the beauty of being fully yourself. Where Joy Lives is a custom heart painting layered with vibrant color, expressive texture, and spontaneous drips that bring the piece to life. Each layer builds upon the next, creating movement, depth, and a sense of joyful energy radiating from the heart at the center. Like all of my heart paintings, this piece began with a handwritten intention placed beneath the first layer of paint — a quiet message of love that becomes part of the artwork forever. Created for a collector who wanted a painting that would make them smile every time they walked into the room, Where Joy Lives celebrates the simple, powerful truth that joy belongs in our everyday spaces.
