Paris Wishes

At the end of February, I was shown an ad for an art contest. It was being hosted by Micheal's craft store & Canson, with the prize being a trip to Paris. The main rule was to create an Parisian inspired piece. My original plan was to create my piece digitally and even made quite a few mock-ups. But nothing seemed to stand out. Then my family made the suggestion to use as much of Micheals products as possible. It basically meant starting from scratch.

After some meditation, I got my inspiration for my piece from the simple fact that I wish to go to Paris. Now, other than the frame and the fake hair, the rest of the products used were from Micheals.

This is my art piece, Paris Wishes.

Costume redesign

About two weeks ago, I did up a quick version of Sumire Hakami from Aikatsu for Tsukino Con.

It was photographed by this group, who were running at photo booth.

Though I was happy with the photos, I thought that I could improve the costume. I restructured the skirt and attacted it to a new form-fitting top that zipped up in the back. 

I like how the redesigned dress feels and looks. Just have to add the accessories and the wig, and I'm good to go.
