The Seven Diamonds.
Day Light Publishing House, 2024 Published.
The Seven Diamonds is a classic fairy tale by the Russian literary master Leo Tolstoy. With rich imagination and profound meaning, the story reveals the magical power of compassion.
I chose a gray-toned color palette to reflect the mood of the text in presenting this story. Using a mix of materials such as watercolor, colored pencils, and crayons, creating a rich texture in the illustrations.
A very long time ago, a serious drought occurred on earth. All rivers and water-wells went dry. Grass, trees and shrubs withered from lack of water. Many humans and animals died from thirst.
Mother said: “In any case I am going to die. You should drink the water yourself.” She handed the water jug to the little girl.
The seven diamonds rose higher all the way to the sky and turned into seven stars.
