Xian M.

This is a book of love story rewritten in verse. The stories had in oral form for over thousands of years and later came to books a few hundred years ago. In recent decades, they appears in many other forms such as TV stories, films, and picture books. I am the first one to reform these stories into a poetic form.

This is another story book I adapted and illustrated after the very famous Chinese play. I created all characters.

This story is based on my own cat who escaped from home for overnight but came back quietly. Therefore I fabricate a story to remember him (he has been died for a few years). I took lots of photos of him, but when I drew this book, I tried to make his eyes telling his feelings.
