Proud to be Ukrainian

 

Everything seems to be monochrome lately. Covered in shades of black, grey, dirt. You can see this in my previous illustrations. It is because of what I have seen, heard, lost. Because of fatigue, hatred, dread. When it comes to colours, there’s only yellow and blue. It is through the trust, support, and courage of those by my side. Through the pride that this country is my home.
