To create the story of my beloved dog, Rinse, I ordered the illustrations to Lashkevich Nataliya, an illustrator, and she drew many pictures for me. Nataliya expanded the image based on the story that I told. I was so surprised because all the illustrations looked just like the scenes in my mind that it seemed like Nataliya was also there together. Every time I see those pictures, it feels like I’m time traveling and makes me feel nostalgic.

I especially like the scenes where my son and my dog spent their time like brother and sister. The pictures were drawn in a soft touch – when they slept together and enjoyed playing hide and seek together – look really beautiful and fantastic.

I want to keep the precious memories of the dearest dog in my mind forever. These illustrations became my greatest treasure with the memories of Rinse. I’d like to thank Nataliya deeply from my heart for her wonderful work.
