'Optimist Heart A' by George Hall.
This artwork has highlights of metallic gold paint.
At the start of 2019 I was struggling and losing hope. I decided to draw what I wanted life to feel like. Hearts kept appearing, layered over newsprint. I replaced negative words with positive ones and created my own version of the world. As I worked, my outlook shifted. I found myself smiling more, and people responded. I began sharing the works online. I called them The Optimist, reflecting who I had become.
