Platinum Design process: Calligraphy designs of "love" in arabic

Page with designs of the word "Love" in arabic, done in watercolour paint
The words above, each written in a different colour, all spell the same Arabic word which is pronounced "Hub-bi" and translates to the word "love".

I've drawn the word in a few calligraphy styles to play with. I used different colours in the painting just to separate the words but looking at it all together now, I wonder if I can include colours in this piece. These calligraphy styles are considered modern/ contemporary as they do not resemble any of the traditional calligraphy styles.
