From the start my inspiration for this final folio piece was my boyfriends little sister Eloise (featured in the images)
With her always dressing up & using her imagination, talking to imaginary friends and always keen to go an adventure she lead me to create a children's story that I feel I will be expanding on for a few years to come!
So with all of that in mind we set off to Floriade, Eloise dressed as a "FAIRY PRINCESS" NOT "just a fairy" in her words HAHA!
When we got there the thought came to mind that I could base the story along the lines of a "fairy princess" searching for her lost magical fairy dust. I felt that Floriade was the perfect setting to do so, being quite appropriate for what I was aiming for.
So basically the finnish product is Eloise searching for her lost magical fairy dust which the naughty gnomes had been hiding from her. In the end having found the magical fairy dust, it had given her back her magical fairy powers (transformed in the face paint image) so she was able to again do her magic and of help to all the creatures in her magical kingdom.
As I said I feel the story is incomplete in the sense of it being a children's "story book" so to speak and can defiantly be expanded on but at the same time I feel the images tend to tell a story on their own. Many different little stories can be created from the series on their own, depending on how the viewer reads the images themselves.
