'Tommelise' is a reimagining of the fairy tale 'Thumbelina' created by Hans Christian Andersen. I wanted to explore a more playful and tom boyish character whose main interest is adventuring with the other small critters in her forest home.
Each illustration was created using Procreate and Photoshop.
