LUIS ROYO REVIEW OF ANCIENT SHADOWS

Original Text:

"Algunas veces, la voz de Priscilla vuela por mi estudio. Y cuando levanto la vista del tablero, me acompaña en viajes de vapores.
Su voz ondulada y misteriosa te hace llegar a esos rincones que no están en ningún lugar, te hace levantar los pies del suelo. Me gusta acompañarla a los lugares remotos que desprende con su música porque, aunque lejanos, le resultan familiares a mi universo.
Siempre un beso Priscilla, tu mundo es una bonita puerta al viento"
Luis Royo

Translation:

"Sometimes, Priscilla's voice flies over my drawing studio. When I lift my eyes from the board, it comes with me in vaporous journeys. Her modulated and misterious voice makes you reach those places that are nowhere, that sweep your feet off the floor. And I like to go with her to those faraway landscapes that she creates with her music, because even  though they may be  remote, they seem very familiar to my own universe.  Luis Royo (Illustrator)"
