Sally had nothing to lose. She hadn’t heard from Sam in many weeks. Sam had recently lost his parents and seemed pretty shut off from the world. Sally liked him a lot though never said anything to Sam. She knew Sam liked her too but he never said anything to her. Here we had two people who liked one another but just couldn’t speak up! Sally thought some Pop Art might send the message and brighten up Sam’s sad world.

A friend had taken a picture of them at a cafe not so long ago. She never showed Sam the picture because it was obvious that the two were more than just friends in this photo. They were both sitting very close to one another, almost face to face. From all accounts and purposes, they looked in love. Sally sent the photo to My Pop Art and had it done in the most brilliant hues of pinks and reds and had it sent to Sam, with a note saying, “I’m there for you. Now and forever.” She wasn’t proclaiming her love and she knew it…but she was getting closer!

Sam finally called her and they talked for hours on the phone. He expressed how down he’s been, how withdrawn. Sally listened. They met at that same cafe later that day. And the following week. And several years from now. The Pop Artwork of the two of them now resides on a wall in a home that they share. Ah, love. Sometimes you just have to speak your mind. And if you can’t, you try. That’s the best you can do.
