Thalia's book

Thalia's book is finished and is bound for Peru tomorrow morning! 

Last entry:

Albina's secret garden

First: the best wishes for the new year.
This is Albina's book, the one that got lost between the Netherlands and Russia. I had a spare empty book and redid the 2nd and 3rd drawing, the one from Thalia (flowers) and my own (Jonas and the whale). I will send it to Anastasyia early next week.

Thalia.

I have had contact with Thalia, and she asked me tell you that for very personal reasons she can't continue with this group. I already contacted Albina about it.
Thalia will send the 2 books in her posession to me;  I will continue of course.
I have one request: I would appreciate if we all cooperate to finish Thalia's moly as planned. I can assure you it will mean a lot to her and help her through some difficult times.

Thalia's moly: Imagine

At last, here is my contribution to Thalia's Moly. Her theme was "dreams" so I choose to refer to one of the biggest dreamers of all time: John Lennon. I made a short trip to New York City 2 weeks ago, and we visited Strawberry Fields. It's a part of the Central park, near the place where Lennon was shot in 1980. There is a memorial in the pavement referring to the song that in my opinion represents his dreams the best: Imagine. Imagination is the start of every dream of course.

I made some sketches during the trip: you can find them on my blog
