Abstract
I named this photo Sweet Creature because it gave me the same vibes as the Harry Styles song named Sweet Creature. My original idea was to photograph random objects being used in a different way, but as I was laying out all of my stuff it reminded me of a picnic. So, I decided to use these old items and give them life again. The stuff I used is all very old and most of the toys used are ones I played with during my childhood, so these pictures are very nostalgic for me.
