Black Heart

BLACK,
Color
of
Death and
the dreadful
dark side,
Of
Vampires,
Ghouls, witchcraft
and sly Raven,
Overwhelms
all the
hues,
tints, tone,
and mixed shades;
Beware!
Fear
color
Black.

Black is used to represent the "dark side". You have captured that well, Abdul! Congrats on your placement and thank you for participating in my contest! Love, Kim

Black is one of my favorite shades, because it is so mysterious, yet beautiful... I really enjoyed this unique piece. Great work! Good luck in Kim's contest!
