So this is a scene from my third book, which is Our California and, as I mentioned before, I wanted this to be sort of a visually…a description of what a child would remember if they travel through the state of California, which is my adopted land. So you can see that the main character, the whale, seems to be painted in a very primitive way, as if a child had written it, or drawn it, as well as some of the textures and characters that surrounds it. I wanted to keep this child-like sprit over the whole book. So this was so much fun to draw.
