So i am back (or trying to make time to be back on CD) …I was very honoured to be asked to be a part of this Carnival collaboration and while i ran out of time so i didnt get to do my original design i am still happy with my piece …‘Beauty and the Beasts’ Taking inspiration from my board I knew I had to include at least one dragon ( I LOVE dragons as you can have so much fun with them. Their specifics aren’t set in stone as with other mythical creatures such as unicorns), some stars and then of course some fun colours. Knowing that in Italy a lot of the floats for carnival feature caricatures of politicians, I wanted to incorporate that into my story. Seeing as my inspiration board had balls and in Chinese tradition the dragon is always chasing a ball I thought that would be a fun way of featuring Renzi, Berlusconi and Grillo (three of Italy’s politicians)

I hope you all like it! Thank you for taking the time to look!

Ps. i guess that you can tell i am sleep deprived as i finally had some fun goofing around with the cake (never normally do selfies ;)
