Illustration for the December issue of the magazine In Touch.
The article I illustrated describes the experience the writer had when she walked the pilgrimage of the three mountains of Dewa, in Japan. This pilgrimage is part of the Yamabushi practices. The Yamabushi are monks who follow the Shugendō doctrine and believe that by immersing yourself in nature, you can find enlightenment.
In my illustration I aimed to visualise the process, which pilgrims might experience, of being connected and part of nature.
