How did you make this work: LITTLE SPIRIT, illustrates a poem written by author, Karin Rainho, for her daughter Gracie, expressing our deep connection to the natural world. In this illustration, Gracie is being embraced by the ocean. Using a dip pen and ink, I worked to capture Gracie’s joy as she imagines waves hugging her. Layering watercolors, I hoped to replicate the unique light quality of golden hour on the shore.
