Bed & Breakfast
Every time I hear the word 'Bed & Breakfast' or 'BnB', I spontaneously fantasize this word in my thoughts like there has to be something edible to be a bed. And this is how I illustrate the word 'Bed & Breakfast'
Also I want to add more diversity in my illustration. As I can see on many visual media, pretty and straight white people are noticeably nominated! Even though I'm straight, I have many gay, trans, LGBT friends in Thailand and elsewhere. Also they have different types of skin color so I want to visualize the image of interracial gay couple in my work :)
Apart from that, I'm currently having a long term relationship with a Swedish guy, as I'm a Thai woman, some people think that I might be a gold-digger. The image of an Asian girl dating a White guy can be very skeptical because there are many negative perception toward Asian girls scamming White guy. Imagine if interracial couple is shown in some commercial in Thailand, there will be a controversy according to the negative reputation towards 'Asian girls with White guys'. Even the image of Asian guy dating White guy can be also controversial issue, an Asian guy can be misleading regarded as 'A toy boy' to a White guy..
That's why I want to normalize any kind of relationships in my illustration!
I'm also working on small project for my interracial relationship.

Note : I'm not sure if this picture will mislead that gay couple relationship is like one night stand or one night stay in hotel, but my main idea is just that all good relationship is like Staying Home Having a Good Breakfast. Although staying in hotel sounds temporarily, but you know that everything is impermanent! (And sometimes you can eventually LIVE in hotel, right?)
