  • This book (and it's accompanying transliteration text) show the American and French Revolutions side by side, to compare each countries battle for freedom. Each panel is hand drawn, and represents a significant part of the countries fight. The accompanying text adds details and explanation to the pictures, and we're written by the illustrator of the main book. The books are hand sewn, and each illustrated panel corresponds to a written description in the text edition. They were made over the course of ~50 estimated hours, for a school world history assignment.

  • Creativity is a way humans express themselves, show love, and understand the world around them. I once read that people make art to dull the pain of living, but they also make art to understand their pain, and the pain of others. Creativity is a beautiful gift.
