pink clouds series These are the original drawings of the series below. It,s a true love story what happened with me in 2009. I met with a boy from Israel. He was the brother of one of my really good friend. We spent a really wonderfull day together and after he went back to home. We began to speak in skype, for a week long we spoke 8-10 hours a day. After he moved to South America for a half year long trip, and every time he sent me an e-mail, that where he is and what is he doing. And from e-mail to e-mail I illustrated our own story of the south american trip. I made for a half year, and it was a really enjoyable virtual time for me and also for him.

brand labels for SPEJZ
