Kiss- A painting

I am in love with this painting.

It captures the way it feels when my lips touch Valerie's and everything else about the world recedes to distant background, to be replaced by the bright glowing shell that our intertwining souls build around us. This painting captures love.

I'm not an art critic. I'm not even terribly knowledgable about visual art. I just know what I love when I see it. And I wish I could have this hanging on my wall, because every time I looked at it, I would be able to feel milady's presence in the room.

The artist is Leonid Afremov. I highly recommend you check him out (the link leads to his website). His use of color is extraordinary.
