Boyfriend Paints Surprise Proposal During Art Session | Happily TV

A woman was brought to tears when she swapped canvasses with her boyfriend during a painting session and noticed four important words had been added to his work: "Will U Marry Me?" Mariah Battles, 25, and her then-boyfriend Eeyan had traveled to Dallas, Texas, where Eeyan had planned a surprise picnic date, during which he suggested the couple try their hand at painting. To hide his surprise, Eeyan suggested the couple follow a TikTok trend, which would see the two have separate canvases, which they would paint on for five minutes, swap, and then repeat until each work was completed. After a few exchanges, Eeyan, who had been keeping track of time, then announced it was time for one final swap, at which point Mariah looked at the canvas and read the words asking her to marry him. As she laid eyes on the message, the 25-year-old froze in shock, sitting in silence and smiling as Eeyan then mentioned how much she meant to him and presented her with a ring. The couple had known each other since high school, but it wasn't until they went on their first date in January 2023 that they knew they had something special. Eeyan headed off for work with the U.S. Air Force a month later, making a promise he would keep in contact with Mariah and the couple would explore their connection further once he’d completed basic training.
