Pop Princess and Coffeshere cannot be more proud of their hard work and dedication! It was very difficult for both of us to narrow down the contestants to just three with such a very talented group of artists!
So without further ado, we would like to present to you the following artists and their illustrations. (If you would like to review the artists interviews and learn more about them, you may do so here.) (If you're looking for the artists portfolios/links follow the "here" link as well!)
Remember, it is you who decides their fate! You who appoints the next royal illustrator, and you who can make their dreams come true of turning their design into the next Pop Princess collection full of beautiful dresses and accessories!! (And then of course you'll be able to wear those designs! :) )
GOOD LUCK TO ALL! We adore each and every one of you! <3

**The Fabric Illustration: Doll Maker**
TELL US YOUR STORY...
I wanted to create something creepy and cute so I made the
Dollmaker print.
I found a quote by Warsan Shire:
“You are terrifying
and strange and beautiful, someone not everyone knows how to love.”
I wanted to make
something that showed that you can take your broken parts and put
them together; the end result will be something so tragic and
beautiful. People would wonder what kind of things you've been through. The
scars and cracks you so hate will be the untold stories that would mesmerize
those who behold them. I like the thought of a dollmaker, putting together
broken parts and turning them into one beautiful doll who stands out because of
how imperfectly she was made.

**The Fabric Illustration: The Dreamy Ugly Duckling**
TELL US YOUR STORY...
I chose "The ugly
duckling" because is a very beautiful story about courage and finding your
place in the world. Most people think the ugly duckling is about changing to
become a beautiful swan, that's why it's been an inspiration for extreme
makeovers in tv, but it is not. The lesson behind the story is about finding
who you are, and how by knowing yourself you can become a better version of
yourself. The ugly duckling was always a swan, but he didn't know it.
We all
are in some way the ugly duckling, scared of the world because we don't know
who we are, but we all are a beautiful swan deep inside of us. We only have to
know ourselves and appreciate all the good things we have.

**The Fabric Illustration: Birth of a Star**
TELL US YOUR STORY...
How are stars born?
Well yes, there is a scientific explanation, but many years has the man wonder
where those beautiful shining stars come from, and there have been many stories
surrounding it.
My story is about
fireflies; fireflies have actually a small amount of life, so when they pass
away, they continue shining in the sky. But it's not like a automatic thing
that happened. Once they die, they are reborn into fruit stars, that grow on
the heavenly trees, guarded by the night goddess. Once the fruit stars are in
full bloom, they are released into the skies and all the heavenly creatures
reunite to see that happening, which is the part that is represented on the
fabric.
And
after the stars are done with their lives, they fall back once more into earth
and turn into fireflies, so that light is never gone, it just keeps changing
over and over, but the light is always there, in the skies or in the forest,
always leading the way into new things.
