Hi. My name is Lana. My profession is an artist. I draw comics, postcards, calendars, and other interesting things. A group of my drawings – instagram.com/kosmonozhka/ , patreon.com/kosmonozhka_111

I like to be in unfamiliar places, to notice and photograph things that people usually don't pay attention to. I love writing on the walls. I call it " the city speaks". My dream is to become an Illustrator and illustrate children's books!

I visited Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Armenia, Georgia, Turkey, Germany, Estonia and Finland. I also traveled inside Russia, to the Caucasus and Baikal.

The postcards I'll be especially glad to receive:
– old books, letters, different types of paper
– beautiful stamps, envelopes
– stained-glass (close-up), majolica
– children's drawings
– naive art, Mexican ex-voto
– street art
– sketches, illustrations
– old and unusual trains, steam locomotives
– water towers
– Hygge, Boho style
– nudes (please, no pin-up)
– beautiful food photos, recipes, interiors of restaurants, menu for my husband (it makes him happy!)
– from Hungary: the interiors of village houses, Hungarian folk embroidery, Busojarash festival.

If you don't know what to send, please take a look at the page "Favorites".

When I send postcard, I always try to pick one that will appeal to the recipient, and stick the beautiful stamps. It's very cool when a stranger tries to please the other person. I will be glad if you will do the same.

I love interesting and unusual paper for the touch, envelopes, colourful stamps.
Envelopes are welcome, because there is a nasty tradition of our post to put a stamp with data on the front side of the postcard :(

I will be happy if you tell me about yourself, what you like and what you dream about. Tell me, have you been to Russia?

Still would be cool if anything you'll draw, even if you believe that you can't draw. I really love children's drawings, so if you send me a child's drawing with an explanation of what it is, I will be happy.

If you sent me a postcard and it is not registered too long, please tell me and I will register it.

P.S.
Cards in envelope + letter are very welcome!
Please No "keep calm" cards – i think it's not funny.
No standard multiview and tourist cards, No monkeys and pigs, No Anne Geddes, please! :)
Thank you for the postcard!
