    uniE621 The Animal Alphabet
    I got a task to create illustrations that help kids learn the English letters. My first idea was to draw animals, that are actually in the shape of the first letter of their name - it seemed super exiting to work on that! The client needed something else so I Produced other illustrations in the end, but I decided I don’t want to give up on my idea, so I finished the alphabet in my free time. I shared letters and people loved them, so in the end I produced set of 26 cards with the english alphabet. Each letter is depicted by as an animal, whose name starts with the same letter. On the back of each card there is a short riddle, dedicated to the animal on the front. https://www.twine.net/signin illustrator designer…
