Terese Nielsen - Love
There are many forms of love, and a mothers love is one I'm very familiar with. This sketch is the beginning of a piece I'd like to continue working on. Many years ago I shot photos of my niece and sister in law, and have always wanted to do something with it. For this "sketch" version, I'd still like to add some white pencil for the highlights and a few touches of gold. Actually, I'd like to detail it out and paint it... we'll see. : )
What an awesome group. Thanks for letting me share here.

Hooray, this is so exciting! I'm thrilled to be a part of this love-fest with all you guys. My theme today was the Look of Love, taken a tad bit literally.
Scott Murphy - Big Love
Thanks guys for letting me be a part of this! Here's my first go:
Love comes in all shapes and sizes.

Tim Paul-Cafe Love
Since the first sketch/drawing was open subject, I decided to go with an image about that first moment you see someone. That moment of first attraction.
Jeffrey Alan Love - First Love
The first thing I say "I love you" to in the morning is a cup of coffee.
Sarah Gay- Love
Mmmm... hello
Firstly, I'd like to thank Kristina and Scott for inviting me to join this journey.I am totally humbled and inspired by all these other amazing artists who are participating!
For my first contribution...I'm not sure I have anything to really write about except that for me, love is about finding that place and meeting there together.
Where ever there is.

Narciso Espiritu - Norm & Luca

| No, they're not crying. |
I like couples. Strong couples, especially. They're like a team. This is Norm and Luca, two creative individuals in Jersey City. One is a fine artist; one is a creative enabler. They do vastly different things, but they fit together quite well. However, I don't see them affectionate with each other very much, so I thought I'd force them into a hug here.
Tara Jacoby - Unfortunate Coincidence
For those of you who know me... I'm a pretty cheerful person, BUT I love, love, LOVE dark subjects. So, I'll be posting a ton of bitter Dorothy Parker inspired sketches this month for all my single ladies out there. Don't fret. I'll pepper in some happy, mushy subjects too. :)
Jeanine Henderson—Love Birds
Been playing around alot with pattern making lately and looking alot at decorative & textile illustration, so kind of tapped into that inspiration for this "lovebirds" sketch to kick off the Month of Love!
Cynthia Sheppard - Chemical Reactions
Edit: I'm all self-conscious now because I didn't post any text with my sketch. Here I'm beginning with a tribute to the river of powerful sensations flowing through the heart and mind in love - butterflies, fireworks, sparks. Sometimes confusing, often wonderful.
Marc Scheff - Love is a Burning Thing
Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" holds a special place for me. We sang it in San Francisco over flaming Drambuie and Liar's Dice at the Buddha Lounge. Night after night putting on our best for the Man in Black who had not yet passed. We were young with minds, and hearts on fire.

Kyle Smart- Love Puzzle
Okay so looks like I'm first out the gates, all thanks to the invention of time zones. Heres hoping that I start small and finish big.
