Cold hands, warm heart
£145.00
'Cold hands, warm heart' is a mixed media painting, 20cm x 20cm framed in black wood with a gold inlay.
'Cold hands, warm heart' is a well-known saying, but for me, this also pays homage to cold water swimming. As a swimmer submerges in cold water, the blood vessels in the extremities constrict, sending warm blood to the central area of the body to maintain function and to keep the core warm.
The cool blues and warm peach used in the painting reflect this physical reaction.
'Cold hands, warm heart' is available from Gallery 2, John Finniw Street, Kilmarnock.
