Interesting colors. Don't feel much love there (as the title suggests).

Nice composition and color. How is it that the heart's outline isn't crystalized too?

I like your concept and title. For me, it's just a bit too textured, but otherwise I like it very much.

I don't know why I like this but I do. I think it's how the blue bleeds into the ice and creates various shades. Interesting and not trite or typical. 8
