Love Is In The Little Things And These Heartwarming Illustrations Are Proof!

Love Is In The Little Things And These Heartwarming Illustrations Are Proof!

For too long it has been romanticised that love is in the grand gestures. Expectations of the “perfect” man or woman that strides into our lives and sweeps us off our feet sound great in fairytales or Bollywood movies (here’s looking at you Yash Raj Films), but in the real life, so many happy couples agree: love is in the little things.

Los Angeles based artist Amanda Oleander took to her illustrations to depict what love looks like when no one is watching, and it is the most adorable thing you will see today! Her work was recognised internationally, after working as the in-house illustrator for E! Entertainment, and once she started broadcasting her work on Periscope – a live streaming app, she gained over half a million followers, all of whom were absolutely in love with her art! She has been featured in several publications, including Vanity Fair and Seventeen, and we can totally see why people are touched by her illustrations.

It’s in the little moments of pure bliss with the one you love, may it be cuddled with them on a lazy Sunday morning, or doing mundane household work with each other, that we realize that love is definitely what comes in small packages, and details are everything!

Check out these illustrations that will restore your faith in personal bonds and intimacy, and let your heart fill up with a whole lotta love!
