Pencil, acrylic & acrylic marker on paper

In Mara Heuer’s Valentine parade, pencil and acrylic mingle in soft, scuffed layers, giving the wide-eyed puppies and rosy-cheeked hearts the charm of an elementary school Valentine pulled from a forgotten shoebox. Each figure beams with unconditional enthusiasm, the kind only lapdogs can muster. It’s the card you send when you’re fully devoted, happily ridiculous about it, and not above wagging your metaphorical tail.

From the people who send them
The handwriting doesn't look printed. My mom asked if I'd written it myself. I said yes.
— Blake, LA
Arrived in four days. I'd braced for longer.
— Ian, Chicago
Sent it to a friend I hadn't seen since college. He sent me a photo of it on his side table a week later.
— Dave, Philly
My wife sent it to me on a random Tuesday. No occasion. That was the point.
— Eddie, Tampa
Kept it on my shelf next to my books. Doesn't look out of place. That's the highest compliment I can give a card.
Chelsey, New York
My little brother graduated in May. I live across the country. This was the closest I could get to being there.
— Jared, Chicago
Put one in every welcome bag for a networking event I hosted. Got emails afterward asking how I'd handwritten them all. I told them my secret.
- Carly, Ft. Lauderdale
