⛰️山海経29: 䲦鳥。谷に住んでいて、目が3つあって、鹿みたいな声で鳴くフクロウ。王道の梟デザインは既に描いているので、形も鹿に寄せました。
🌊Shanhai jing 29: Dai-niao, the three-eyed owl in the valley, which cries like a deer. As I’ve already done “a normal owl” before, let me make a deer-owl this time.

La beauté des originaux d'Uderzo ♥

C'est fou tout ce qu'on zappe à la lecture une fois dans un livre en couleurs. L'élégance de la composition, les pleins et les déliés, la lisibilité parfaite du noir et blanc.

I start inking and I’m always startled by the way the drawings go. I don’t have a perfect picture in my head of the image I want. I discover the right picture through drawing.

🩵 Coming Soon! Ning and the Night Spirits by Adriena Fong comes out in paperback this January! 🩵
📖 Ning has always heard tales of the night spirits that used to haunt the little village where he lives.
Secretly, he wonders if they’re really as bad as everyone says – but is much too shy to ask.
