Hi Brian! I'd love to be considered for this book! My portfolio can be viewed here: www.michelledaoart.com

So excited to announce that I'll be illustrating "My Thali Is a Symphony" by Anita Yasuda 🌟It's set to come out in Spring 2027 🌈🌿

I'm so honored to be working on such an amazing and important story. Thank you to everyone at @kidscanpress.bsky.social and Anita Yasuda for this wonderful opportunity 🌟
