Designed by Christopher Box, printed and assembled with love in Eureka Springs Arkansas (these are not mass produced greeting cards)
Analog Feelings is a love letter to a slower, messier era - when liking someone meant effort, timing, and a little bit of risk. Styled after classic conversation heart candies, the design nods to the days of mixtapes, handwritten labels, and the quiet drama of pressing record at just the right moment.
This card is for anyone who remembers when feelings didn’t come with an undo button. Equal parts nostalgic and self-aware, Analog Feelings celebrates the beauty (and occasional heartbreak) of doing things the long way - when love took patience, technology could betray you, and somehow it all meant more because of it.
Inspired by the iconic Conversation Hearts® candies, first introduced in 1902, this series draws from a Valentine’s Day tradition that has spanned generations. Known for their pastel colors and stamped messages like Be Mine, Kiss Me, and Call Me, conversation heart candies became a cultural shorthand for affection, small, sweet, and to the point.
The Candid Candy Hearts series began in 2018, created on short notice for a Valentine’s Day décor installation at Neiman Marcus flagship store in Dallas. When an artist unexpectedly backed out, I was invited to step in, and these updated, tongue-in-cheek hearts were born almost overnight. What started as a quick creative solution became one of the most talked-about elements of the installation, resonating instantly with shoppers.
Since then, Candid Candy Hearts have grown into a staple of my art catalog. Each piece keeps the familiar candy-heart format intact while updating the language for modern life, trading sugary clichés for honesty, humor, and emotional truth. They’re designed to feel both nostalgic and unmistakably current, like a Valentine that grew up and learned how to tell the truth.
