She, her - Why did you create this work?
I created this work as a project during the master of illustration at the Ars in Fabula school in Italy. During the master's, I worked all year on a text commissioned by a publishing house. At the end of the course, the publishing house Bakemono Lab decided to publish the project. The book was published in Italy in December 2023. - How were your illustrations used?
The illustrations were made for the story written by another author and were supposed to accompany the story. The illustrations were used in the book as the internal spreads and also for the cover.
- What materials and techniques did you use?
I used traditional materials, oil colors applied with a sponge roller, pencils, pastels, and ink.
I collaged scanned elements in Photoshop. - Was this project commissioned?
