"What do we mean by the term illustration? There is no easy answer. From the Romans to the Enlightenment, the Latin analogy “ut pictura poesis” (as is painting so is poetry) was used by philosophers to suggest a parallel between literature and the fine arts, between visual and verbal modes of communication.”
― Robert J. Bezucha, The Art of the July Monarchy: France, 1830 to 1848

The objective of my Graduation Project was to visualise and create Illustrations for a Children’s Picture Book. During this course, I have learnt immensely about the essentials of Illustrations and Digital Art. They add another dimension to the bilingual texts of Tulika Books and make the learning of a new language less intimidating. The document ahead entails my journey of creating a picture book and growing page by page, as an artist.
