They visited ECA studio where Pilar has her desk as artist in residence and Polly had a chat with few cool illustrators which inspired her for her future career.

This boy made my day!! ❤️
We worked today again during the running a comic workshop for Primary Schools.
He was excited showing me his drawing when I saw a big knife drawn.
I explained him that we like the love instead the war and he immediately erased it and drew a flower 🌼
We can change the world for one much better!
