Panel One: The Painting stands in his lonely green house world, small in the panel, full bodied. He's slightly doubled over, lazily holding the Heart within his hand.

Text Box 1, narration: Ink.

Text Box 2, Narration: Festering within him, his hatred grew.

Text Box 2, cont, Narration: Grew so big it became something entirely different...

Text Box 3, Narration: It's like the Painting's own hatred became a self portrait of what he'd become.

Panel Two: The Painting is standing in the same lonely world, but its darker and he's smaller, behind him stretching from his shadow is a looming, ink black version of himself, like a monster, outlined in orange with bright orange circular eyes.

Text Box 4, Narration: A Brother.

Panel Three: The Painting stares with a stoic, yet horrified face, his eyes are tiny pinpricks fixated on nothing, the Heart floats above his hand.

Text Box 5, Narration: Desperate for relief, fearful of the darkness overwhelming his once glowing, pristine heart his father left him...

Panel Four: The Painting has his eyes squeezed shut, the Heart glowing brightly in front of him, confirming a wish was made.

Text Box 6, Narration: The Painting made his first mistake.

Panel Five: The heart is isolated in a grey, watercolor background panel, over half the heart is dripping in inky, hateful black ink now.
