Children's Book Illustration

Liora, A Curious Heart and an Imaginative Soul

Created by HMD Publishing Illustration Studio

Meet Liora, a hand-drawn children's book illustration concept following a young artist through sketching, painting and quiet moments outdoors.

Liora leans against a tree with her sketchpad and looks up into the branches, draws in a cottage garden beside a hand-painted sign, paints the fountain at an easel in the park, then settles among wildflowers to sketch as the sun goes down over the valley. Her yellow shirt and satchel of pencils appear throughout. The supporting sheets add her puppy, eight expressions, six outfits and a day-long storyboard.
