Inspiration

This photo was taken in the huge township of Kyayelitsha, Cape Town. I have been a fan for a long time of the wonderful work done by the Monkeybiz project. They provide work for ladies in Township to make beautiful, crazy, inspired animals from beads. I love these bonkers animals, and as an HIV counsellor I am very keen to help any projects which support ladies with HIV. I contacted Monkeybiz before our visit to Cape Town, and was able to accompany the manager on her visit to collect the latest batch of hand made animals. This is a photo of some of the ladies completing their animals.

Editing

yes - de-saturated and then added in certain pastel colours one at a time.
