Awwwwww! I'm so pleased I managed to convert you. :DDDDD

I cannot tell you how much I adore this piece. CANNOT. I love the colors, for one, and the way you have the blue reflected through their skin tones, especially the little horizontal branches across their arms. (If you ever do a coloring tutorial, I'd be there with bells on.) There's this general translucence through the whole thing, with the green-glass water and Gen's cover-shirt and the open sky and the blue of their veins (looking at Jared's hand especially). It perfectly captures the feeling you get out on a boat.

And, omg, their FACES. I cannot stop with their faces. Jared's delighted, tender expression, and the way he's just touching his fingertips to her skin, and Gen's leaning toward him but not quite looking at him, like she's turning just a little inward in that moment, because she's just that affected, and that little smile of hers! I can feel her love and yearning just lifting off my computer screen.

There are so many other details, too, like the sweet little curl of hair at the end of Gen's braid and the pink on her hands and THEIR NOSES and the way you've done Gen's cheekbones and chin and it's all so wonderful. I couldn't love it more. <3
