anatomical heart made of M&M's candy

Happy Valentine’s Day!

To honor this “holiday”, I created an anatomical heart made of M&M’s! It was fun to swoop the different colored candy into place as I recreated the shapes of the different anatomical structures. Yes, in case you were wondering, I snacked on the green ones as I worked.

In the short video you can see how I went about making this candy heart. The whole process took little less than one hour. I’ve drawn lots of hearts before so it was pretty simple to do what I usually do with my pencils with candy.  Blue was the meltiest color. That was a surprise. I also found out that not all colors are represented equally in a bag of M&M’s.
