This interview was conducted in April 2021. Meet our friend, Princess Bizares! She’s a background artist by day and a book illustrator by night! Keep reading to go behind the scenes of Bahay Kubo, a Filipino folk song and, now, an illustrated bilingual children’s book! Thank you Princess for walking us through your work! We’re so excited for your book. 💗 Say hi to Princess over at @ambitiousfish on Instagram! First off, tell us about yourself! Kamusta! My name is Princess Bizares and I’m a painter/illustrator born in the Philippines and raised in SoCal. I work in TV animation and most recently finished illustrating a children’s book featuring “Bahay Kubo”, a Filipino folk song written by Felipe Padilla de Leon, about a nipa hut and the vegetables that grow around it. What did the process of creating your book Bahay Kubo look like? Shift through the slides for all steps to Princess's process: Check out her finished book at: tinyurl.com/BahayKuboBook! And, stay updated with the rest of her work via her website: ambitiousfish.com! Writers: Jordan (@deadswampsofsadness) Comments are closed.
