The artwork titled “Elk Heart,” created by Charles James in approximately 2022 in Atlanta, United States, measures 76.2 x 76.2 cm.
The artwork showcases a vibrant, surrealistic depiction of an elk with pronounced white antlers and intricately patterned skeletal markings. Dominantly rendered in earthy tones, the elk’s form stands out against a dynamic, multi-colored background that shifts from blues and greens on the left to warm oranges and reds on the right. To the left of the elk’s antlers, there is a prominently featured red heart, creating symbolic resonance with the title. Above the elk, the word “DREAMER” is inscribed, while the bottom right corner carries the text “ELK HEART” along with a small crown symbol, adding to the mystical and narrative elements of the composition.
