Mark, this is a fine illustration. Red is the color of passion, the small hearts radiating out, when you have two nose to nose looks like that, words are not necessary. Wonderful design, nice theme, nice coloring. Ray G.

Awww...so sweet. And yes, I am sure you had romance on your mind, but it looks as if she did as well. A beautiful Valentine card. I love it.

Love the passionate feelings being displayed in the couple embracing inside a red heart with small ones all around. Their smiles bringing warmth and kindness to mind, telling the viewer they love one another a lot. Your colors are outstanding and really radiates excellently creating vibration tone in the design. You have centered the couple nicely in the center of your design allowing the pretty red heart to have space for freedom. The detail is awesome with excellent detail. Thanks for sharing.

    I have folks ask who it is me or whatever..no I just got lucky to capture that facial expressions. If you notice my cartoon characters in different series I'm always trying to show a unique facial expression that will go with skit. Thanks bro for noticing these small things I throw in..wink. Thanks for the awesome review

It is easy to imagine what you hat in mind. All the military guys came back with the same thoughts I guess. It is not easy to life with a bunch of guys in close quaters with no females arround, isn't it. Your sweethard seems to agree with you, so I guess you had a really happy Valentine. The drawing is nicely composed with the big Valentine heart in the mitlle and all the little one arround.

Comment from Jack Moore


I guess we have the same thing in common and that was being in the army, wasn't married then. Sometimes I miss it but it was so long ago it is almost feels like a dream that is almost forgotten, I wonder what my friends are doing and how many made a career out of it, was young then but getting older now. I really like this. Thanks for the memories. JackJr.

Very romantic exciting colours. Eye catching and a defo for Valentine's Day. Good drawing skills and clever composition including their expressions ... Very revealing. Must ask what is Sharpie. Bic I recognise. I recently bought watercolour pens and quite like using them for ATCs did you use something similar? Whatever you did do it has a great effect with outline and crispness.

    well brenda i dont work with any art medium..see sharpie and bic pens are office mediums..my entire work is always done with this office material..took many a year to get the art world to accept it..wink. thanks for the great revieww.
Comment from Artistic Chick


I really not only love the sentiment of this work, but love that a military man can be sentimental enough to put something like this together, and shows you have found your creative side as well. It reminds me of my dad, having served in Korea and Vietnam and sending poems to my mom. She has them framed and hanging in the hall. Plus my dad also is a very creative and talented fellow. He was also Army and retired cop. Even tough guys have artistic talents and warm hearts. Thanks for your service and for sharing your story and all that you are made of. What a gift.

    i was drawing long before i learning how to write..when i was 5 while watching the mercury rocket take offs on tv...i drew barnyard animals staring off into distance at a rocket..heck that was the reason i went into the army to get the GI benefits..course life throws us curveballs and i fell in love, got married had kids..had to use the benefits to go into management..cant support kids on a pipe dream of being an illustrator or cartoonist that maybe kinda sorta might make some money one day..so when the last one left the house years ago, i went back to pursuing my dream..so when ya get old in life...it aint over..heck in the artworld its only just beginning...cool hearing about your dad...wink...thanks for the great review.
