Zara, A Little Light

Created by HMD Publishing Illustration Studio

Meet Zara, a hand-drawn children's book illustration concept following a young fairy who catches a falling star and brings its light to a night garden.

Zara flies wand-first into a starry sky to catch a falling star, waters glowing flowers in a lantern-lit night garden, reads to her rabbit inside a warm den, then dances among the blooms beneath a crescent moon. Pink and deep blue carry the whole set. The supporting sheets add a rabbit companion turnaround, nine expressions, six outfits and a six-panel storyboard called A Little Light.
