These illustrations are for my thesis on Book Illustration For Childrens Story Book.
The title of the story is ''There's a DUWENDE in my brother's soup'', an original story by Ms. Lara Saguisag and origal illustrations by Marcus Nada. THERE's A DUWENDE IN MY BROTHER's SOUP is a bi-lingual book with the Filipino and English language, that tackles the topic AUTISM in a fun narrative way that can be eaisly understood by children. The word DUWENDE in Filipino culture is an equivalent to the so-called ''elves'' in the Enlish fairytales and literature.
Syle used is a fusion of free-hand rendered illustrations for the characters and photography as background and setting of the story.
