Shakespeare is Deer to My Heart

April 23, 2016

In My Hart of Hearts   8"x10"  Acrylic on paper

Today the world is remembering & celebrating the brilliance of William Shakespeare, so I thought I would join in and share a Shakespeare inspired commission I did for a British music magazine (I'm a sucker for those lace collars.) 

Here's the quote that inspired the piece:

"Give me that man, That is not passion's slave, and I will wear him In my heart's core, ay, in my heart of heart, As I do thee." - William Shakespeare (Hamlet Act 3, scene 2, 71–74)

Way to go Shakespeare!
