Beauty or ugliness, order or confusion are only relevant in relation to our imagination. (Baruch Spinoza)
These chocolate ladybugs drew my attention while I was thinking about my friend’s birthday. She had invited me to an overnight excursion with her to Niagara where we were going to have a buffet dinner and see a live show called “Hurrah for Hollywood.” This was going to be her birthday celebration. I knew the buffet would include lots of cupcakes, sliced cake, and many other types of desserts. The last collage will reveal how these ladybugs were actually used for the celebration.
Color in certain places has the great value of making the outlines and structural planes seem more energetic. (Antoni Gaudi)
Creativity is not the finding of a thing, but the making something out of it after it is found. (James Russell Lowell)
This is the last collage! There are two cinnamon buns, one on top of the other – and the three ladybug chocolates are on top. I was just having fun in the hotel room and the other collages are the result of that time. My friend was absolutely delighted with her little cinnamon bun birthday cake and her presents. What do you make of all this? Ridiculous?
“All great deeds and all great thoughts have a ridiculous beginning.” — Albert Camus
Hope you liked the ladybugs! Don’t forget that I only bought three!
