Here is my entry for walkingdead_is_lyfe 's art contest! The theme is ikigai, which is Japanese for the reason you exist. I've never entered an art contest before, so hopefully this goes well! 👍

REASONING:

I drew a passionate hug as my entry because it signifies my ikigai; unconditional love. This is my reason for existence because I believe that God made us to love, whether that be family love or romantic love. In my drawing, the girl is embracing the boy and hanging onto him just as strongly as he is to her. Unconditional love can build you up when you're torn down, and that's why it's my ikigai.
