About the Book

The Airy Tales tells about the invisible threads that connect all the things around. When you touch accidentally one of these threads in the air, it might show, as well as some other threads nearby. Then you start seeing more than you did before, you see little people who are sitting on the leaves as on balconies, a healer who lives in the house inside the rain, or a street pole in love with a crow.

These short tales are light and humorous, they aim to dissolve sadness. Airy tales are the tales that come to you easily, like from the air; that's why they are "airy tales". You can take a bunch of them from the air yourself. They fall onto the nose like raindrops. They seem to exist already somewhere and as they touch the mind or the eye, they take a familiar but always surprising shape, just like snowflakes. Words and illustrations merge together in these tales, adding to their personal style which attempts to read messages from an unseen place that soars between a dream journal and a notebook.

About the Author: Olga Volozova was born in Russia at the shore of the Caspian Sea. At the age of 16 she moved to Moscow, where she graduated from the State Institute of Theatre Arts. She specialized in playwriting and puppetry, and started publishing her puppet plays and fairy tales. After moving to the U.S. she entered the graduate program at UCLA Animation Workshop, where she got her MFA in Film & TV/Animation.

Volozova is an L.A.-based writer/artist; she does illustration, cartoons, children's books, graphic novels, and web design; some of her projects involve puppets, claymation, optical toys, paper theatre, and dioramas. Olga's book The Airy Tales has been published by Sparkplug Comic Books (Portland, Oregon). Her book in collaboration with Juliacks, Rock That Never Sleeps - two fantasy stories about the loss of memory - has been also published by Sparkplug, as well as her recent graphic novel The Golem of Gabirol, based on the legends about the famous kabbalist who lived in 11th century Spain. Olga is fond of experimentation with different techniques. She writes fairy tales and she doodles a lot.
