Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls - Book illustrations

Rose Stories gave me the chance to illustrate three wonderful women for the Dutch version of the bestselling book Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls. The book tells the stories of 100 inspiring Dutch women. I chose to portray feminist Wilhelmina Drucker, astronomer and chemist Ewine van Dishoeck and speed skater Ireen Wüst.
