Final Major Project



For my Final Major project I want to focus on Disney and how most of their films are all sweet and innocent and end in "happily ever after" yet are based from more sinister and gruesome stories. My initial idea is to use illustrations either digitally or hand drawn to  achieve the effect I want. I will be researching Walt Disney and anything else I feel represents Disney and inspires me for my final piece.

Step Sister 1 design Step mother designs  When designing the step mother and stepsisters clothes to be very elegant and rich with lots of embroidery.  I designed 3 different dress designs for each character and put a coloured spot next to the 2 dress' I chose for the final piece.
