Liora, The Pond Light Fairy

Created by HMD Publishing Illustration Studio

Meet Liora, a hand-drawn children's book illustration concept following a pond fairy from a swing above turquoise water to a starlit night flight.

Liora sits on a wooden swing above a glowing grotto pool, kneels at the bank to greet a small golden fish, cradles a spark of light inside a pink lotus bloom, and flies into the night lifting a shining star over the river valley. Teal water light and her yellow dress colour every scene. The supporting sheets add four turnarounds, twelve expressions, six action poses, six named dresses, Pip the frog, Lumi the dragonfly and Nilo the fish, pond props and a six-panel story from quiet pond to lit-up night.
