The Grimm Rainbow

7 Re-illustrated illustrations based on the the original Grimm fairy tales in the colours of the rainbow. The concept being that although their stories are sometimes bleak, there is still a rainbow of hope within it ( the prince ends up marrying the princes, the evil do-ers are punished) 

Using animal masks in prismatic colours to depict how there are many times where us humans act very animalistic as well but it is usually done in the dark (faceless/nameless to not be caught) therefore behind a mask. The choice of animal mask is because 'Bad people' are are often called 'animals' and that is exactly what they are.

Snow green

I chose a spider since snakes were too conventional. this follows the original story where the apple given was actually half red and half white. Red being juicy and poison whereas white was not poison which was what the Witch ate.
