Art of a young East asian girl wearing a yellow outfit and holding a red ribbon. She rides a red horse with flames for its mane and tail. A similar looking foal runs in the foreground. 5 other horses run in the background. The fire horses symbolize the year of the Fire Horse in the Chinese astrological calendar.

This #PB, although written about a time long past, feels very relevant today. And gives me hope. Resilience is often exemplified through art. BLOOMING BEHIND BARBED WIRE is beautifully written by @tracihuahn.bsky.social and illustrated by @mayumisasage.bsky.social @andreabrownlit.bsky.social #kidlit

I’d love to ask those who draw by hand and then work in Procreateβ€”what do you use to scan your drawings, and how do you do it?
