Some time ago I saw this Samuel Aranda's photo on the web [link],
I was touched by the emotion of this pose, by the full and empty spaces of this embrace.

I'm not really gonna say anything about technique and whatnot but I realize you don't do a lot of work with more than 1 figure in the picture and this is rather different. The physical contact between them makes the impact and how the hair wraps around both of them is a beautiful concept to me.
I don't know if I'm just digging too much into it, but the contrast between the two of them, one colorful the other in a grayer palette, it really leaves a lot to the audience to ponder. Anyways, can't wait to see this finished!
What do you think?

Your pieces are dominated by very unique abstract watercolour techniques. This is the first time that I'm so attracted to watercolour portraits. I always hated watercolour. I feel very inspired! The reason why this piece of artwork attracted my eye is because of the shades of red you added to the woman's eye area. It gives a emotional feel. I like how you actually made use of the hair of the woman to add in colors. Very beautiful choice of colors. The darker shades of colors gives this piece a sense of seriousness, as well as creating very beautiful contrast.

I think it would look better if you can complete the details of the man's fingers, and perhaps can use a white gel liner to add abstract texture to the man's hair. The contrast around the area where the woman's arm is hooked around the man's seems not strong enough, adding a bit of color there may have helped, or might even create more balance. Nonetheless, this is still a mind-blowing piece!

i saw this image long before i read this manga, but when i came back and looked at this picture again, it reminded me of this. i think that this image matches this story perfectly (though i know they're probably not related).
