Do you remember your first love?
I thought I’d give it a go in expressing it using watercolors…..:)

Lovely image
Thank you 🙂
Beautiful image! The light pastel colours really represent the feelings of being in love for the first time.
Thank you for your kind comment! Initially I was going to draw smaller circles to make an arch over the two little couples, but then tried with bigger circles 🙂 I’ve never received any heart-shaped balloons from anyone though :p…but had anyone!?
Oh my, so beautiful:) I love this, wonderful colors and a happy, light mood.
Hello there, thank you for your comment. 🙂 The two are obviously in their own world, hehe
Yes they are, so lovely…
So incredible sweet. I love the colors and the boy and girl in silhouette. The baubles make it complete and so cheerfull,it gives movement. Thanks for sharing!
Is it for a special project?
You are too sweet!!! Truly made my day, thank you. It’s actually a surprise Christmas gift for my friend who had supported me in becoming an illustrator. She doesn’t know about it yet (nor this blog) so hopefully she feels my gratitude and message from the illustration x
It is so sweet, so inocent! You really captured the concept of the first love! Love it!!
Thank you Maria! I appreciate your positive feedback x
Wow, this reminds me of when I first met my husband, it is so filled with young sweet love 🙂
Thanks Annie 🙂
It’s only an illusion when looking for the outside. From the inside it’s as real as it gets. 🙂
You’re absolutely right! The boy’s heart must be pounding right at this moment..:)
very cool

Hello Pooky! It’s an absolute yes from me..I’m so happy to hear that you got an inspiration for your poem from the illustration. Looking forward to reading them x

Hello, I’m a high school student in South Korea. I’m making my book in literature class. Can I use this illustration in my book? I’ll cite the source.
Hi there!
It’s such an honour I get to be in part of your work. What sort of book are you creating? Is it a love story? Thanks so much for messaging. Good luck with your assignment.
