About Young Yogi and the Mind Monsters पुस्तक चित्रण

"यङ योगी एन्ड द माइन्ड मोन्स्टर्स" पतञ्जलिको शास्त्रीय योगसूत्रमा आधारित बालबालिकाको चित्रात्मक पुस्तकका लागि तयार पारिएको चित्रहरूको सङ्कलन हो। यी चित्रहरूले प्राचीन योग दर्शनलाई बालमनको दृष्टिकोणबाट प्रस्तुत गर्दछन्, जसमा भारतीय लोककलाबाट प्रेरित जीवन्त रङहरू र सरल संरचनाहरू प्रयोग गरिएको छ। स्वप्निल दृश्यहरूले मनले वास्तविकतालाई कसरी आकार दिन्छ र धारणा कसरी परिवर्तन हुन सक्छ भन्ने कुरा देखाउँछन्। प्रत्येक चित्र सुरुमा कागजमा पेन्सिलले कोरिएको थियो र त्यसपछि डिजिटल सफ्टवेयरको प्रयोग गरी रङ भरिएको थियो। छापिएको पुस्तक २०५ बाई २०५ मिलिमिटर आकारको छ र यसमा जम्मा १०१ पृष्ठहरू छन्।

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.
