Swaddling cloth
I decided to create a swaddling cloth for my cat, Leonidas. I cut out a 20″ x 20″ piece of black fabric and did a hand printing pattern. I chose primary colors (red, blue, & yellow) for the hand prints and then to finish it off I did white paint splatter on top. The rugged edges and hand prints are highly reminiscent of cave art or tribal art.

For this assignment I made a crown to accompany my ‘royal’ makeup look and outfit. I used cardboard from a cereal box as the skeleton and used aluminum foil over that. There is also white fur trimming on the bottom of the crown as well as black velvet/velour material for the inside of the crown. For the makeup look I was inspired by French royalty, such as marie Antoinette, hence the heavily rouged cheeks, pale skin, beauty mark and red lips. I also added a modern twist to the makeup by using a silver metallic eyeshadow to balance the metallic finish of the aluminum foil. For the outfit, I am wearing a black silk shawl with silver & gold rings with diamonds.
