Curiosity and the Creative Spark
Nabi H. Ali


As a kidlit artist and independent illustrator, Nabi H. Ali balances maintaining a personal voice and meeting clients' requirements. A personal art practice informed by their interests helps Ali cultivate curiosity. With each professional project, Ali implements new methods and styles to feed a creative spark. Both personal and professional spheres of their work then inform each other, helping to push artistic abilities into new territories as well as expand an audience base, reassure clients every time they experiment, and most importantly, provide an engaging and enjoyable craft.
