The Lotus Warrior, Courage and Honour

Created by HMD Publishing Illustration Studio

Explore The Lotus Warrior, a hand-drawn children's book illustration concept following a young swordswoman and her horse from dawn to cherry-blossom dusk.

She stands with Storm beside a lotus pond as the sun rises behind a pagoda, rides hard through a green forest, sits alone above a lantern-lit valley beneath a full moon, then rests her head against Storm under falling cherry blossom. Muted greens and dusty rose hold the palette together. The supporting sheets add a full turnaround for Storm, nine expressions, six clothing variations and a day-long storyboard.
