Double Page Children’s Book Illustration.
Zumrad and Qimmat
As a passionate advocate for preserving cultural heritage, I have taken it upon myself to create high-quality illustrations for the beloved Uzbek fairy tale 'Zumrad and Qimmat'. Despite the lack of existing illustrations, I am determined to bring the story to life in a visually stunning manner. Through my efforts, I hope to inspire others to take action in preserving their own cultural traditions.

The book has a size of 8x10, and most of the illustrations are on the right side of the pages. Since readers usually see the right page first when they open the book, I always make sure to include the main part of the story on the right side. The book is intended for children aged 0-14 years old. The colors used in the book are not too bright or too dull, but somewhere in between. I aim to maintain a traditional look for the characters, including their hairstyles, clothing, and surrounding environment.
