DRAWING WITH MILENA & MILENKA, GETTING READY FOR THE SHOOTING

28Th, 29Th March 2019

Few days before the shooting we flew to Poland to meet Milena. We tried to have everything ready beforehand, but most of all we wanted to have fun and enjoy the moment. We were starting to be a bit nervous, though.

On the first day we were quite busy: preparing the accessorizes, making up our minds about the clothes children should be wearing…and making last minutes adjustments.

The first thing we did was to get Milenka and Carbon together to help them get to know each other and become friends …if they spent some time together, it would be easier to take some nice pictures of them -we believed.

Amazingly enough, they were getting along: Carbon was next to Milenka all the time and she seemed to be enjoying that, except when the doggie was getting too affectionate and was trying to lick Milenka´s face…that was a bit too much…

The day before the photo session, when they were best friends, we got the idea of drawing some creatures on the ocean map, main design on our first collection.

Milena brought all her drawing gadgets and began to draw some clouds, little animals, the bottle with hearts…and more fantastic creatures on the ocean.

Milenka joined her and started to draw little birds on Milena´s drawings that she named “tweets”, they were nothing else that lines (hahaha)

We thought drawings were ruined but Milena said it was okay –“it will be more natural”- she said, well, yes, it was more natural indeed…

Painting and painting while Carbon (black spot on the pictures) was watching without losing a single detail…little clouds, little tweets here and there…
