WHAT IS: When I was in P4, at school they made us draw ourselves every month from September to June. These are some of the drawings I made during the school year.
|
WHAT IS: This is a drawing I made for my mom when I was only 6 years old to congratulate her on her birthday. In it, I appear with a birthday cake, calling out to my mom to surprise her.
|
WHAT IS: Most of the characters in my drawings were pink girls dressed in pink with high-heeled shoes. In this case, there is also a horse next to a pond and a flower. I remember perfectly painting the sky and the grass with markers because it allowed me to do it faster. |
WHAT IS: That year for Christmas, the Tió brought me a set with 2 mannequins and several fabric scraps so I could start bringing my own designs to life. I really enjoyed using all kinds of ribbons and scraps I found around the house and making a thousand combinations.
|
WHAT IS: From a very young age, for ballet performances, my mother had to sew ribbons and sequins onto my leotards and tutus. But due to the interest I showed when she did it, she decided to teach me until eventually I was the one in charge. Also, starting to use pointe shoes made me much more practiced with needle and thread because every time you get a new pair, you have to sew the ribbons on very securely.
|
WHAT IS: For my high school research project, I started trying to merge the worlds of dance and fashion, so I chose to design and make a ballet leotard and tutu without ever having used a sewing machine. It was quite a challenge but also opened up a path for me.
