Steemit Engagement Challenge WOX, S10W1: Creative Collage: World of Kids

In the world of kids there is a large kitchen where they learn to use the best ingredients to grow.
Here, all recipes are important, from the most complex to the simplest.
In this kitchen they can imitate what their parents or friends do, but they can experiment and find new ways of doing things, change the order of ingredients or try new ones.
Sometimes they will be successful, sometimes not. They will learn, without making a drama, that not everything will go as planned or as we say in Italy “not all donuts come out with a hole”.

Searching through magazines I found this image of children cooking and I got the idea of making them cook in a metaphorical way. So I chose this as the main image.

Then I found the donuts which are much bigger than the kids and I liked to pull them over. I cropped them to be able to overlap and better hook them to the main photo. Also I cut out some sprinkles from a donut to put into the dipper.

Then I tried these parts on a white sheet, still without gluing them.

With the pencil I outlined the contours to establish the position on the sheet and then I started making the background.

I tear some pieces of paper with delicate pastel colors with my hands.

After that I pasted the main image and continued adding some overlapping pieces.

Finally I glued the donuts.

I add other elements such as recipe books, some vertical bands, candies and then I create the school sign with markers to put on melted ice cream.

On the left corner I add a sugar garland cut out from a cake that I combined with the chef hat. I add other candies and a butterfly on the girl's hat and a mashmallow on the boy's hat.

This is the final result.

This is another picture with my name and date for verification.
