A Valentine's day gift for my loving partner Draa <3
I had a hard time trying to think of an idea in the 'traditional loving picture' category... so I just put my pen to paper and drew the first thing that came to mind after.
This is supposed to be one of those snippets in life that you don't appreciate unless you're in that moment. Just those little parts of everyday life that mean nothing normally but are the little things you live for; a beautiful sun ray from a sunset, the rustling of tree leaves through your window, the smell of freshly cut grass.
In this case, it's those cold rainy days where you can never really seem to get warm. You sit inside and snuggle up in a blanket and just listen to the rainfall outside, windows cracked to let in that fresh earthy smell that comes with the springtime rains. It's cold and dreary but you find warmth in it; something lovely and small that is fleeting but there that you can just sit, listen, inhale, and enjoy.
That's the moment I wanted to capture with this. A real moment, a tangible moment, and not some lovey-dovey stereotypical pose.
I hope I did well!

I really like your different approach to Valentine's Day! And I'm enjoying the textures on the rocks on the left side of the image. The artwork feels rather cold and dark to me because of the muted color scheme, and because the values in the picture are overall pretty gray... But I can definitely relate to the pleasure of listening to the rain while sitting inside. :3
