This work is inspired by my hobbies and favorite things, all creatively infused into a soft-serve ice cream design. It embodies my personality and perspective.

 Watching fantasy movies or playing game are the time that brings out my curiosity the most, because I feel strong desire to use magic or mysterious power. Also, the two circles of the background represent an effect of the magic.

  Also, even if I’m facing some difficulties or going through something stressful, traveling and music can cheer me up and refresh me, and the cuteness of cats also soothes me. 

 Besides,flowers, grapefruit, and ribbons also represent an aspect that like reading fashion magazines and  interested in clothes and healthy living.

 This piece is a small, dreamy embodiment of my favorite things.
