How did you make this work:
I fell in love with the subject of bioluminescence after unexpectedly witnessing sea sparkle for the first time. I developed a fascination with the phenomenon, and pitched my idea for a children's book. Working with designer Kate Haynes, we explored different printing techniques, deciding on selectively using fluorescent spot printing with expanded gamut, so the illustrations seem to really glow!
