Lily, Little Heart and Big Wonders, and the Fawn

Created by HMD Publishing Illustration Studio

Meet Lily, a hand-drawn children's book illustration concept following a woodland fairy through moonlit glades, dandelions, rain and a lamplit evening.

Lily stands in a moonlit glade where a fawn, a squirrel and drifting butterflies gather around her, blows a dandelion clock into a sunset sky, walks through rain beneath a leaf held like an umbrella, then reads by lantern light with a sleeping fox and a rabbit beside her. Soft greens and warm lamplight run throughout. The supporting sheets add fawn and bunny turnarounds, seven expressions, six outfits and a storyboard about planting a seed.
