Rua
Writing, traditional and digital Illustration, monoprint, collagraph and print press
A children's original storybook, with fine-art prints using a variety of techniques playfully, "Rua" the fox discovers how to belong in his community, opening the conversation for all of us about how we find our place and learn to play our part.
Cities are full of foxes. They dart in and out of shadows, sometimes brazen, sleek, and fast. Where are they going? What are they doing? We know they eat our pet food, steal our shoes…
I have written and illustrated a book for children about these foxes, adjusting to city life from the edges of the countryside, with adventures that sometimes land them in trouble. I follow Rua the fox’s adventures, with illustrations that enhance the storyline.
