The Pilgrim

When I first read The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, it helped me discover that my destiny would be the journey of becoming an artist,and so I began walking that path. Some time later, I came across his book The Pilgrimage, which inspired this illustration. I’ve always been drawn to the idea of a spiritual journey and to those brave enough to walk it, and this piece is a reflection of that fascination.

The imagery portrays a pilgrim’s path into the unknown: a visual story of courage, discovery, and faith in one’s calling. The character “Mush,” who often appears in my illustrations, represents the wanderer’s spirit: curious, reflective, and ever searching. The small cat beside him was inspired by my own companion, Yuki, who journeyed with me through many stages of my creative path.
