A FOR ARTIST : The following artwork is the design for A for Artist Issue 4. Inspired by Van Gogh's self-portrait, it reimagines the artist not through realistic features but as a collection of floral, symbols, and expressive forms. The red portrait carries the inner world creativity, emotion, imagination. The blue scribbles running through it are the noise of a creative mind: thoughts colliding, questions half-formed, ideas showing up uninvited. The layered background hints at architecture alongside handwritten notes and sketches, reinforcing the idea that artists are shaped by everything they experience. Every conversation, place, building, memory, and emotion becomes part of their visual language, turning the artwork into a portrait not just of one artist, but of the creative process itself.

CITY IN MIND is a reflection of Kathmandu valley's architectural landscape. The illustration brings together traditional Newari buildings, new-traditional homes, and modern concrete structures, showing how these styles just exist side by side, no real separation between old ad new. Instead of picking one landmark to focus on, it looks at the everyday buildings the ones that actually shape what the city feels like. The layout is compressed on purpose. That's Kathmandu: buildings crammed close, barely any gap between them. The mix of scale and style says something too, about the different economic backgrounds of the people living inside these walls. Architecture ends up documenting all of it quietly the city's history, it's growth, the way life here keeps shifting.
