No Title (I wish I…)
2005

A vibrant painting of a red anatomical heart with dynamic brush strokes in shades of red, yellow, and white, set against a plain background. The artwork includes handwritten text at the bottom right that reads, "I wish I could show you—give you—the real thing and not this pale representation," along with a small depiction of a black pen.
