It is rainy, but the couple in the secluded Italian alleyway do not notice because they have eyes only for each other. His fedora and her cloche hat give a retro, nostalgic feel, but the sense of romance is timeless.
Love is precious - you can never have enough love - be it friendship, the romantic love of two lovers, the love of a family or the love of nature or animals.
Tea, the ocean, and flowers -- all three are calming, reflective of nature's offerings, an invitation to slow down our incessant, efficient pace and simply . . . be for awhile.
When we are waiting for something, someone, it is an ache, a drive deep inside our heart that simply can't be easily wished away. If it could, then it would be because you really haven't wanted it. Don't feel bad that you can't give up wanting what you're waiting for.
There is no rush, no need to hurry, no push to dart quickly and skim past this moment. This moment, right now, is enough in itself, filled with joyful and pleasurable anticipation of the evening ahead, an evening filled with possibilities and promises, spent with someone most dear.
Painting - almost like meditation - applying layer of paint over layer...over layer... The hardest part was to wait until the previous layer has dried.
A month ago I shared a #colorful#romantic scene with a man and a woman and a commenter here said they'd like to see something similar with two men instead. This is a result of that challenge. ❤️
From my collection of heart paintings - Little pink heart acrylic painting - May this little symbol of love and friendship also bring happiness and joy into your home!
