Lemon magazine

Publication in a Portugal-based international parenting magazine. Six full page illustrations were published in this joyful bright magazine alongside different articles about modern motherhood. Not all illustrations were custom made for this purpose. Some of these were selected from my previous creations, with some small adjustments or wording. A few were custom created for Lemon magazine, in close collaboration with the editor team who provided the theme articles for this editions.
