Project Solara Maris

About us

My name is Laura, the author of this book. Together with my husband, Ovi, who brought the illustrations to life, we had the joy of turning a special story into a graphic novel. A sculptor and graphic artist by profession and a graduate of the University of Art and Design, I find inspiration not only in shapes and textures but also in words. My passion for writing has led me to this wonderful form of artistic expression, where stories come alive through images and text.

Ovi, my husband, although an IT specialist by training, has always carried with him a deep passion for drawing. This book is his first project in the fascinating world of graphic novels—a creative journey that brought us together on a heartfelt collaboration.

As children raised during the communist era in Romania, we experienced a time that profoundly shaped our childhood. Inspired by the desire to share fragments of that period and tell the story of a generation, we created this graphic novel. It is more than just a book; it is an invitation to explore the past through an authentic lens, full of emotions and memories.

We invite you to discover this story and step with us into the captivating world of graphic novels!

Victory of science.

Our country has just sent the first cosmonaut into space, where he proudly planted the flag of our country.

Not only the present, but also the past is glorious.

The teacher at school tells us with pride about the glorious battles of the heroes. The greatest hero is Vlad the Impaler. He also showed me how much he fought and sweated in the battles against the Turks. He did impale some of them, but only because they were thieves.
