Water Fairy
The Water Fairy was co-created and designed with Supreme Commander Starlight. It was for the production "Big Trouble at Little Water hole", a Sonic Boom Circus Desert production.

The costume is one of many that has travelled to the central desert communities of Australia, bringing hope, magic and a little sparkle to many aboriginal communities that sometimes do not see very much of it.

Starlight's vision, hard work and unwillingness to compromise on quality helped make this costume the magical creation it is. We both explored shibori dying and textual techniques, as well as combining the influences of Victorian costumes and Japanese kimono.

These designs were created as part of the design module for our course. We were required to design a folio of thirty designs for the musical, The Steel Pier, to be entered into the CLOC design competition for 2005. For the designs I used Aquarell pencils on water colour paper.
