Claude Monet - Les nymphéas 🪷

“You shouldn’t make friends with crows,” he’d told her.

“Why not?” she asked.

He’d looked up from his desk to answer, but whatever he’d been about to say had vanished on his tongue.

art vs artist 🌱

This has been a weird year, specially in terms of art, but thank you so much for sticking around, it means more than I can express 🤍

August slipped away into a moment in time 🦋

[adibkhorram]

Later this month (August 28) marks the fifth anniversary of Darius the Great Is Not Okay. I never could’ve imagined the life this book would have—or all the ways it would change my own.

To celebrate, I’m doing a special fifth anniversary giveaway—featuring prints of the beautiful Spanish cover of Darius by @byndebondry. Everyone who signs up will get one (yes, even internationally). Details (including the signup form) will be in my next newsletter, going out TOMORROW (August 16)! Subscribe if you haven’t already (adibkhorram.com/newsletter).

Twin stars ✨

I had an “I forgot how to draw” moment and decided to stop what I was working on and just go with the flow with this sketch, no pressure. It’s not good but it’s ok, that was not the point. It’s a good exercise and you can expect more of these messy sketches.
