I illustrated for Disney’s MULAN book “Mulan’s Lunar New Year”, (you can see the book here!) a children’s book about little Mulan spending Lunar New Year with her family.
It’s my first book and I want to share some illustrations :D [*will also have this book at my table at CTNx 2018 this year on display at T55!]
Looking back, there are lots that I want to improve on the crafting of my drawings for this book, but overall… I’m really glad I get to illustrate and to remember the joy and excitement I had celebrating Lunar New Years and lighting fireworks with my parents as a kid.
I have had the honor of working on two different comics projects with Don Hertzfeldt. Flight, and Fusion Future. But this is the story of my first interaction with the man.
Tove Jansson’s illustrations of J.R.R Tolkien’s “The Hobbit”
It was Astrid Lindgren, author of the universally beloved Pippi Longstockings, who as an editor and publisher by the Stockholm publishing house Rabén & Sjögren approached Tove and asked her to illustrate the Swedish edition of The Hobbit.
