    Peter Pan

    An illustrated reinterpretation of the classic story of Peter Pan.
    For this personal project, I wanted to revisit the story through the curiosity, imagination, and sense of adventure I remember from my own childhood.

    The collection brings to life some of the story’s most iconic scenes, with a strong focus on expressive characters and visual storytelling.
