With this project I want to show a fantastical and whimsical new world that I have created. An imaginary world where things do not conform to reality. Elements like cracked walls, dirty sewers, chipped walls, lonely stone steps and broken doors are brought to life with the addition of free-flying birds, a full moon, the setting sun, waterfalls and fireworks. This world is inspired by the fairy tales I was enthralled with as a child. The world of fairy tales is a place where right is right, wrong is wrong, and good and evil are so easily defined. I believe in these ideals, forever. A fairy tale never lies; it is a place of salvation for the soul. So the world was created. One person cannot change the world, but at least I can make myself happy.
