The Lokta Illustrated Bible is a series of graphically illustrated books made in a block style, using Nepali lokta paper.
The first in the series, ‘Creation’ covers the first chapter of Genesis in beautiful imagery, telling the story of how God created the heavens and the earth, and all the plants and creatures that live together with man and woman.
This beautifully illustrated book will go a long way towards helping your child to understand the most precious book in the world, the living word of God.
The book features beautifully clear images that enable the reader to visualise what the text is saying. The paraphrase of the Bible text, that accompanies the pictures, opens up God’s word for a younger generation.
The images have been made by making some rough illustrations using Adobe Illustrator. These are then taken into Adobe Photoshop, and using a scanned sheet of lokta paper, the different colours are blocked out using masks and the colours are altered to closely match the original illustration. These files give the overall effect of a decoupage look to the final image.
‘Creation’ was released on 9 March 2021, and is available from all good* online book stores now! Also available from this website store!
