"Starry Bird" Picture Book

Illustrations for Starry Bird, a picture book written by Anna Domina and published by Murkit Publishing.

"In the evening garden, the first star fell and turned into the Starry Bird. But the trouble was - the bird could not remember its song. Each garden inhabitant tried to teach it their own language, but none suited the Starry Bird."

As an avid birdwatcher and admirer of Ukrainian folk art and culture, illustrating this book was a dream come true. Starry Bird is a beautifully told story that gently explains the importance of one's own voice. This is a story about the path to one's roots and one's true self despite the discordant opinions of those around you.
