Happy almost-Valentine’s Day, beautiful artists! I’ve always loved the way that Sweetheart Candies look, so I decided to do a painting of them, sort of inspired by Andy Warhol, and the pastel colors of these Valentine’s Day treats. This painting will be perfect for a Valentine’s Day paint party or a fun activity with a loved one, or just super cute to create for yourself!
