It's no masterpiece but for what it is, it is better than approx 20% of the stuff here. For all its (on the surface) vacuous banality, there is...something about it that Isn't Totally Repugnant. The colors grab me, for one thing: the red black white and light blue really POP here in a very appealing way. The haphazardness of it all feels less contrived that is usually the case with this type of thing. And while this is minimal for sure, what's there is nicely done. Artist: try something less plebian next time. Maybe paint FROM the heart instead of, well, you get the joke.
ADDENDUM: eight days have passed from the time of my review unto now, and I've only just noticed the almost-but-not-quite-transparent hackneyed trite faux-profundity-type slogan in this thing (gag retch choke). I hereby rescind any prior kind words uttered in defense of this abomination. "Hate Yourself" are better words to live by, in most cases :/
