Why did you make this work:
The Maid is a story about a girl who works as a maid in a hotel and one day, she became a suspect to the murder case that happened in the suite. The brief I got was to combine the cleaning cart and hotel architecture together, also the interior of the suite based on the story. All items on the cart were also very specific because the main character has explains them very thoroughly in the book.

What materials and techniques did you use?:
I painted with watercolor and color pencils and gouache on paper first then I scanned it and used Procreate to touch up some small details and people figures later.

How were your illustrations used:
The illustration has been used as a book cover.
