She/Her - Why did you create this work?
I have lived in New York City for over six years and want to create an illustration about my love for this city—especially the uptown area with old brick buildings, Central Park with its wildlife, and the small stories unfolding among tourists. The tourists themselves are also part of my sightseeing. - How were your illustrations used?
I have published this illustration as an individual editorial project on my own zine, Pretty Wishes. The zine's theme is to explore the unlimited relations between NYC and me. - What materials and techniques did you use?
