Surrounded by a galaxy of floating dots in every hue — pink, green, blue, red, yellow — the trio feels suspended in an atmosphere of celebration and joy.

Each figure carries a distinct personality:
• The one on the left glows in yellow and green, with soft pink ear-like shapes that give them a childlike charm.
• In the center stands a calm, steady presence covered in flowing black-and-white stripes, grounding the whole scene.
• On the right, a bright spirit radiates warmth through orange, yellow, and a cascade of colorful dots, like confetti sewn into their clothing.

Their red and pink hands echo the expressive gestures of your signature Tourlicoulis world — hands that speak, laugh, support, and connect. Together, they form a small tribe, a family of energies woven together through curved lines, repeating textures, and vibrant contrasts.

This piece feels like a gathering of souls who understand each other without needing words — a meeting of softness, humor, and acceptance.

I love this drawing because it holds a sweet, emotional warmth. You love the way the three figures lean toward each other, as if they share a secret joy. You love the explosion of dots that creates a festive sky, and the harmony of colors that feels alive and spontaneous. And you especially love the tenderness between the characters — a quiet closeness you feel deeply connected to. It reminds you of the beauty of friendship, kindness, and standing together.
