 A small village in Bulgaria is bringing celebrities and local residents together to mingle on its walls

The artist of the elaborate art exhibition has used the white walls of several town houses as her canvas to create a unique display.

She has drawn 150 pictures and counting with each picture putting a personality from political circles, showbiz and sports world next to the picturesque locals and having them interact in a down-to-earth yet complex form of art.
