About Young Yogi and the Mind Monsters Ilustracija knjige

Mladi jogi i čudovišta uma je skup ilustracija izrađenih za dječju slikovnicu o klasičnim Yoga sutrama Patanjalija. Ilustracije predstavljaju drevnu jogijsku filozofiju iz dječje perspektive, uz žive boje i jednostavne kompozicije nadahnute indijskom pučkom umjetnošću. Sanjarski prizori prikazuju kako um oblikuje stvarnost i kako se percepcija može mijenjati. Svaki crtež izrađen je olovkom na papiru, a zatim obojen digitalnim softverom. Tiskana knjiga ima dimenzije 205 x 205 milimetara i sadrži 101 stranicu.

Production Technology: Kaori read the script and came up with sketches of all the characters with the writer's direction. When the designs were approved, the artist sketched the storyboard for each chapter. Then she created illustrations in pencils and papers and colored them in Photoshop and Illustrator.
Design Challenge: Since it was a collaboration with a writer, the artist had to imagine what the writer is imagining. But she was very open to what the artist brought to the table and worked beautifully together.
Research: Kaori read Patanjali's Yoga Sutras and study Yoga philosophy and Indian culture and art. She also tested her illustrations using a different medium to achieve the right feel for the story.
Inspiration: A whimsical story, "Young Yogi and the Mind Monsters," was written by Sonja Radvila to understand the rich, ancient, and mind-bending philosophy of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. The story is filled with colorful visual and profound questions about how the mind works. As an illustrator interested in Yoga Sutras' philosophy and meditation, it was easy for Kaori to imagine each scene with a clear image.
Project Duration: The writer approached the artist in 2015, and they have started working on character designs. With many backs and forth and story changes, Kaori wrapped up the illustrations in 2018. With crowdfunding, the writer found a publisher to publish the books.
Operation Flow: The writer pitched to a crowdfunding website called Publishizer, and Atmosphere Press published it. They are sold worldwide on Amazon and Barnes and Noble etc.
