Loka Made of Malaysia




I discovered a new series of postcard available in Kinokuniya bookstore. 
A beautiful illustration artwork of a Malaysian artist ~ FeiGiap from Loka Made.  
At first, I was thought that was another kind of Shōjo Manga (少女漫画) . As shōjo literally means "girl" in Japanese, which mostly aimed at the teenagers.


Loka Made also offers DIY pop-up postcards

This is love: to fly toward a secret sky




Skywatch Friday


" This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. 
First to let go of life. 
Finally, to take a step without feet."
