Every time I play with my niece, she builds magical worlds out of nothing—just her imagination.
She points to invisible stores and says:
"This one is for you, Khaleh. That one is mine!"
Her love for setting up tiny shop displays inspired me to create this illustration.
The little girl in red? That’s Sogand—full of joy, curiosity, and kindness.
I added leaves to symbolize the purity of childhood, and the wooden signs are gentle reminders that the next stop in life might still be filled with light—if we let it.
This world was built from her imagination. I just gave it color.
Made with love, brushes, and lots of laughter.
