REINDEER CHRISTMAS CUPCAKES

These pictures show some art created in Lapland. I collected these on a visit to Finland. I like the black drawings which show reindeer, people and the environment. I decided to use these for a cupcakes design.
I iced the cupcakes white. I then took a small painting brush and painted the cupcakes using food colouring. I put a small amount of red, blue, yellow and black on a plate. I had water to dilute the colour and rinse the brush.

The colours remind me of watercolour paintings. They look like planets and landscapes.
When the colours had gone dry I used black writing icing to draw the images from the pictures onto the cupcakes. I think these are interesting and a new way of showing the Christmas Lapland reindeers and their environment.
