Comics and illustrations inspired by the languages I speak, learn, and carry with me, because some feelings simply sound better in another tongue.
CΕur dβartichaut, une feuille pour tout le monde!
In French, to have an βartichoke heartβ means to fall in love easily and often: giving a leaf to everyone while keeping the heart at the centre.

Iβm not a hopeless romantic. I like to think that my heart is full of love and that I want to keep sharing it, regardless of the circumstances.

The original idea for this comic came to me in English, but I felt it was a bit generic. As Iβve been learning French, the idiom βcΕur dβartichautβ stuck to my brain and wouldnβt leave.
So⦠here it is ;)
Every Girl Should Be like Ukraine: Free, Independent and Self-Sufficient
