I am very proud and happy to have as a friend the journalist and cartoonist Luis Haro Domínguez from Uruguay. He has been the most loyal supporter of my website about Colombia. His arts are great and professional. He says that his works can be copied and printed with the condition that his name is credited and he will receive a copy of any printing.
