Title: My Dream Wonderland

Cover story: The title of this painting is "My Dream Wonderland." This theme sparked a lot of fresh inspiration for Flora. She combinates some of her favorite animated elements and personal interests into the work. For example, the adventurous journey of "Peter Pan" has always touched her by their bravery, and the beauty of imagination. Similarly, the story of "Ma liang and his Magic Brush" inspired her with its tale of wisdom and courage overcoming challenges to create a better environment for the family and friends. These stories have greatly influenced her creation.

Additionally, Flora included many elements she loves in the artwork, such as the story of "The Little Prince," delicious donuts, various animals, and toys. These elements combine to form a colorful and dreamy world in her mind. In the picture, a sailing ship floats among planets and clouds, symbolizing endless adventure and exploration. In the center of the picture, a giant teacup holds a little girl with a drawing board, as if she is creating her own magical world with her brush. This artwork not only expresses the carefree innocence of childhood but also showcases the rich imagination and creativity of children.

Artist: Aotong Feng, Flora is nine and half years old, who is an imaginative, optimistic, and positive little girl currently attending the second grade at the primary school affiliated to the normal school of Xicheng district of Beijing. She loves painting, singing, handcrafts, and exploring culinary delights. Flora" alt="My Dream Wonderland">
