So, I while ago I participated in a charity art auction by the Syria/Finland Foundation and Hagelstam&Co. I gave my painting "By the lake" for the auction and I'm happy to tell that my painting was sold :) The money went a 100% to children in need in Syria. I also met the famous "toy smuggler" Rami Adham at the event and a documentary of his work was shown for the audience. I wish there were more people like Rami on this planet and I told him so.
Here is an article and a video of the toy smuggler Rami Adham:
