Hearts

The final blend chosen for the Hearts playing card suit.

Many of the images I used to create this blend were actually versions of my previous hearts:

* "Windows Into the Heart,"

* "Favoring the Heart,"

and the source hearts for

* "The Big Heart of Art"

* "Ribbon with a Heart."

I also used the work of many other artists in our pool to create this blend, as detailed in the following comments.

Thanks in particular to Diana Thorold, whose world of psycodeelia is responsible for much of the upward force swirling through this heart.

Image of a 13.5 dpc mouse embryo showing the heart and somites. The image was created using optical projection tomography (OPT) and immunohistochemistry technique. An MF20 antibody was used - which recognises cardiac and skeletal muscle myosin and the whole embryo imaged by OPT showing the positioning of the heart and somites (which will form the skeletal muscle) positively stained for MF20.
