Thanks gdawe5~


Some updates , kind of did this 3 illustrations under a tight schedules .

This is the 2nd time , i'm participating in the " Chinese New Year Lights " event held in Chinatown , Singapore.

Illustrations will be projected on the building till Eve of Chinese New Year.



Year of the rat
Concept of Illustration was based on The Pied Piper of Hamelin in a Asian style and a happy version.

The rats was taken out in the actual illustration and replaced with some coins as you know that in the actual story , they were drown to death. Haha~ And Superstitious folk might not like it.




Rising Dragons
This is the 2nd design .



Spring of Elephants
And the last one ,means a newest environment or a newest spring.

Evergreen trees and elephants are combined as a metaphor for nature. Evergreen trees are not only green all year round but also represent newness. Chinese pay great attention to the Spring festival and they hope that they can have a New Year with all new things.

xiaobaosg: you are aware that the name "The Cat In The Hat" and the red & white striped stovepipe hat device are trademarks owned by Dr. Seuss Enterprises, aren't you? I wouldn't want you to get into any trouble over copyright infringement.

You wouldn't be the first to fall foul of Dr. Seuss's lawyers:

(note the section that states "The Cat is almost always depicted with his distinctive scrunched and somewhat shabby red and white stove-pipe hat. Seuss owns the common law trademark rights to the words "Dr. Seuss" and "Cat in the Hat," as well as the character illustration of the Cat's stove-pipe hat.")
