Aloktoru : Cover and Illustrations

Being a fan of Bengali Juvenile literature, I always consider the scope of illustrating such book as opportunity. So was Aloktoru (Light Tree in Bengali) - it is an anthology of 50 kid's/young reader's stories and I got the opportunity to paint the cover and draw some interior illustrations for this big book. Sharing some of the pictures here.

Here is the digitally painted cover illustration.

And follows some headpiece illustrations for the stories. I was fortunate enough to see my name as the illustrator of the stories written by my favourite and eminent Bengali authors like Shirshendu Mukhopadhyay, Saikat Mukhopadhyay.
