These are scans of a new illustration I made for one of the stories I wrote for «Little Stories of Little Griefs». I revised the previous one and thought this would suit the story more. It’s about tomatillo (or green tomatoes), and how I wish I had a suitcase to carry my tomatillo garden from Mexico.
I played around with the hair color, but it felt weird to not have my hair black. Tomatillos and black hair are very essential to my identity. I also played around with the idea of the tomatillo. I liked drawing the cut tomatillo, but what I like most about it is the paper like casing that holds it, so I went with that.
