Chapter 510 & the Dept. of Make Believe is "Oakland's only youth writing center fronted by the world's only magical bureaucracy." I illustrated this book for youth writer Ebube Okereke.

I illustrated and designed this chapter book for a young author named Ebube Okereke, as a part of an initiative that Chapter 510 runs in Oakland to support young artists.
Much like the tone of Ebube’s story, the illustrations I developed throughout her book combine blush colors of a youthful optimism with the somber illustrations of a story that is wise beyond its years in its issues of race, class, and family. You can find more of my art living here.
