Love isn't about feeling someones skin next to yours.
Love isn't about getting that diamond ring in the window.
Love isn't about feeling like that one person will do anything for you.
It's about knowing that you will do anything for them.

To me, love is about feeling completely safe with that one person.
Love is about acting like a kid again and not being afraid to show your true colors.
It's about how the world becomes a symphony every time you see him smile.

Inspired by the renowned illustrator, Christian Ward and the song "the first day of my life" by Bright eyes. [link]
This is for a contest.

This is the first day of my life
Swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach
Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don't know where I am, don't know where I've been
But I know where I want to go

And so I thought I'd let you know
That these things take forever, I especially am slow
But I realized that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home

Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange, you said everything changed
You felt as if you'd just woke up

And you said, "This is the first day of my life.
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you.
But, now I don't care, I could go anywhere with you
And I'd probably be happy."

So if you wanna be with me
With these things there's no telling
We'll just have to wait and see
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery

Besides, maybe this time it's different
I mean I really think you like me

Critique: (please read before offering critique) this is a style imitation of Christian Ward, so please keep to the point of this illustration when critiquing this piece. Failure to critique in a responsible fashion may result in you being banned from commenting my artworks.

I have had one two many people not reading my critique section and not understanding what I'm trying to achieve and completly discarding the purpose of certain illustrations.
Yes, I know there are things wrong with it, yes, I would LIKE you to tell me when something looks out, but that dose not mean I want you to say "I don't like the gradients, they look like crap" when gradients is something that Christian Ward includes in every artwork he dose! If I didn't include typical techniques and styles of the artist it wouldn't be an imitation, now, would it?

To be honest, when people ignore these things _{(yes, even when I directly inform them of the purpose of the artwork because they don't want to spend 30 seconds reading about it)} it just gives me the feeling that they would rather be a bitch and go off-topic then to actually provide some form constructive criticism.

I don't have a problem with critique, in fact I love it when people sit back and really look at my artwork to find flaws, it gives me a warm bubbling feeling knowing that they take me seriously and have gone to all that trouble.
