Love is one of the most profound, mysterious, and complicated emotions known to human beings. There are many types of love which can be expressed in a number of ways. We seek to establish a means of relating to another to provide deep and meaningful fulfillment that nurtures and sustains us. Love is commonly experienced by way of a romantic relationship with a partner with whom we feel compatible. The emotion of love is most often represented by the image of a heart, the organ that pumps life throughout the body. Loving another has many events that can affect us in many different ways. We can experience joy, anguish, longing, desperation, and confusion. The illustrations in “Love Bites” seek to provide some comedic relief from the intensity and conflicts that can result from loving someone.
