My name is Fernando Luis Lara. I'm a brazilian artist living and working in the US, and I draw the 365 days of the year. In fact, I draw the stories of people who had a very special day on any of the 365 days of the year as part of a conceptual online and offline art project.
The idea is quite simple: you let me know what happened on your special day, and I will draw it. You will get the original drawing (9 x 12 inches = 23 x 31 cm) by mail, and your story and the drawing will be shown on this website. Over time, this website will be a collection of special days all over the world, and remind us just how special each and every day can be.

What I saw is illustrated in the following chart showing HTTP traffic for http://www.yahoo.com.
