SHISEIDO MAGAZINE
What Should I Do Today (And The Wish Stone)
Japan, 2013

Dora is wondering what she will do on her free day. All her friends turn her down, but luckily Fred the yellow cat is happy to play badminton with her. Fred has an accident and Dora makes a wish.

This work was a commission for a magazine for women. They asked for a story about a game/play set in Tokyo. I am normally not inspired to illustrate towns and cities, but I love badminton and parks. I was amazed by the parks in Tokyo.
