Introducing "Heartfelt", a beautifully crafted wooden box featuring a gel medium transfer of a female posed with one hand on her heart and the other on the back of her head. The gel medium transfer technique used creates a distressed or aged appearance, adding to the piece's timeless beauty.

To create this piece, the wooden box was gessoed to create a smooth surface for the photo transfer. Then, the photo transfer technique was carefully applied to the top of the box, with the image of the woman placed onto it. Finally, multiple coats of varnish were applied to protect and maintain the box's appearance.

When you open the box, you'll discover another gel medium transfer of an old French anatomical drawing of a human heart. The heart inside the box is not just a random image but a carefully selected French anatomical drawing that carries a deeper meaning. The human heart is a symbol of love, passion, and emotion, and it represents the core of our being. It's the source of our deepest desires and the center of our emotional lives. The heart inside the box invites you to look within yourself and discover what truly lies in your heart, to connect with your deepest passions, and to be reminded of the beauty that resides within.

To complete the look, a black velvet lining was added to the bottom of the box. Not only does the velvet add a touch of luxury to the design, but it also serves a practical purpose of protecting both the box and the surface it rests on. The soft and smooth texture of the velvet ensures that the box won't scratch or damage any surfaces it's placed on, making it a functional and stylish addition to any home or office.

Overall, this decorative art box is a beautiful and unique addition to any home or office, and makes a perfect gift for anyone who appreciates the beauty of art and design. It's a piece that invites introspection and reflection, encouraging you to connect with your innermost desires and passions.
