Happy Halloween you’ll! It looks it’s going to be a splishy splashy spooky night here in Toronto. I hope the rain stops soon so that the trick or treaters get out there to collect their loot! The little girl here is sneaking more candy into her cauldron! Done in procreate.

A friend for the lady eating a cupcake from yesterday, inspired by Marie Antoinette’s lifestyle, not that she chewed on bubble gum😂

Working on a baby collection for a licensing collection. Choosing a palette that resonates with the buyer is key, so I do a lot of research to figure out the colours that are trending in home decor.

Hello my name is Farida Zaman. I am an author illustrator and my agent is the lovely Essie White of @stormliteraryagency.

For this Thursday I have illustrated Dr. Jane Goodall — ethologist, conservationist, and unwavering voice for the natural world.

It was hard to choose a favourite prompt because each one was great, but I chose A SMALL CACTUS IN A POT. Will miss this fun month of prompts with #lillasstyleplay2025
