Children’s Book Illustration & Layout — “5 Steps to Heaven”

“5 Steps to Heaven” is a fully illustrated children’s book designed to teach spiritual principles through clear visual storytelling, warm color palettes, and accessible page layouts. I created the cover, all interior illustrations, and the visual language that supports the author’s message. This project highlights my ability to combine illustration, layout, and production‑ready design in a cohesive, print‑ready format.

40+ pages of interior illustration
