I will be working on the final art through the end of this year and into the beginning of next year. As we move forward my publisher, First Second Books, has said I can share progress posts with you, so look forward to those monthly!

bodhisattva

At the beginning of the year I was commissioned to create 3 buddhist illustrations. At first I was incredibly nervous because it was religious. I had never done anything like this and I didn’t want to make any mistakes or missteps. The person who commissioned me wanted to interpret the bodhisattvas in a modern context and with my style. Once I let go of my nerves I really enjoyed the work! One of the benefits of my job is that I learn so much while I work, and in this case I learned about the Earth Store Bodhisattva. I will share the other two bodhisattvas in the coming weeks.

Also, if you’re in San Francisco this weekend I will be vending at the SF Etsy Summer Emporium, come by and say hello!

I hope you have a lovely week!
