How were your illustrations used? :
Book Cover/s, Book inside or spot illustration/s, Whole book design

How did you make this work:
To honor the LGBTIQA+ communities and recognize the importance of intersectionality we wrapped our book Queergestreift in the inclusive Philly Flag. Navigating a sailing boat through the storms of a straight binary society is not always an easy endeavour. But luckily you're not alone. The book cover promotes visibility and cherishes everybody who stands up for themselves and others.
