    Daaww, that is really sweet! I love the idea with them leaning on the tree all alone, with papoe fruit I think it was called in their hands.. Aww..... :">

    Crits:

    I'll start with the background. If you look at a tree, it is rarely so smooth as it looks like here, but has loads of tiny vein like lines following it all the way to the very branches - it's a good idea to make a quick sketch of a scenery from nature and then use it for something like this, a romantic drawing of a couple. Be careful not to make a straight line of grass either - nature is random when it comes to grass, so placing different straws of grass just about anywhere can be enough to give the impression of a field. Don't forget the tree's roots - the size and pattern differs, but an old tree tends to have big and long roots that the couple could sit on.

    The grass line makes the intended perspective source a little confusing, do you look straight forward or do you look down? If straight down, the ground should continue longer up in the picture to create depth. The bodies look a little like there are no bones attached to support them to the tree, almost like a plush doll. If you use stick figures as base models it can help to see how the body would work for your picture.

    Hope this is useful crits.
