While this is not a specific inquiry, I would like to witness the creativity of the members on this forum.
As it is the 14th of February, I had hoped to commemorate the occasion by creating an aesthetically pleasing image that conveys love (even though I'm single af XD). With that being said, I present to you a simple mandala I was able to produce using TikZ:
\documentclass[tikz, border=10mm]{standalone}
\usepackage{fontawesome5}
\definecolor{vblue}{HTML}{041562}
\definecolor{vred}{HTML}{DA1212}
\usetikzlibrary{decorations, decorations.markings, shadings, fadings}
\usepackage{calligra}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\begin{document}

\draw[vblue, line width=0.7mm] (0,0)circle(4.5);

That's cool, isn't it? So, if you were in a relationship, what creative surprises have you prepared for your partner? Alternatively, if you're in the same situation as me and just looking to kill boredom, what have you been up to? XD

tikz, but see the end of my answer using acrostics: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/121440/tex-assistance-in-writing-hidden-acrostics/121942#121942. She hasn't left me yet, LOL. – Steven B. Segletes Feb 15 '23 at 02:02Asymptote,pstricks,tikz... see thefuntag – euler_med Feb 16 '23 at 18:09
