More DescriptionNow that her paintings have recently achieved a great deal of success around the world, Oda Jaune (*1979 in Sofia) devotes this book to her drawings, which "do not conceal any other layers, apart from the thoughts that have been directly and honestly captured."

Jaune lives and works in Paris.
