Four scenes of Amina, a girl in a green-and-pink head wrap and pink dress: reading on a rug among cushions, watering a potted flower at dusk, dancing beside a boombox, and smiling into a gilded mirror. — Finished artwork: Amina's golden hours, from storybook rug to mirror smile.

Children's Book Illustration

Amina, Curious, Kind and Full of Light

Created by HMD Publishing Illustration Studio

Meet Amina, a hand-drawn children's book illustration concept of storybooks, terrace gardens, boombox dance breaks and a gilded mirror smile.

Amina reads cross-legged on a woven rug among pink and teal cushions, waters a potted flower on a dusk terrace with domes on the horizon, dances barefoot in lavender light beside a boombox, and grins at herself in a gilded mirror. Rose pinks, mint greens and gold sparkle run throughout. The supporting sheets add turnarounds, twelve expressions, action poses, six outfit variations, panels with Sunny the puppy, Laila and Mom, and a six-panel storyboard called A Day with Amina.
