What cereal does Rosado use to create her portraits?

Rosado uses cornflakes. She thought of using corn flakes whilst eating breakfast and listening to oldies R&B music.

Why does it take so long to create each masterpiece?

First Rosado sketches the design, then she painstakingly crushes all of the cornflakes to the perfect size. She then uses a pin to shape and design the eyes, nose and mouth.

Name some celebrities that have featured in her cereal art series. What kind of art did Rosado unveil in 2013?

Rosado has done many masterpieces of Michael Jackson the king of pop, Bob Marley Reggae legend, Alicia Keys R&B singer and former Beatle band member John Lennon. In 2013 Rosado unveiled a masterpiece made out dirt. The picture was of a girl on a swing, hanging off a tree.

Critical thinking.

Why do you think the artist picked Cornflakes and not any other cereal? Can you think of any other everyday food that could be used to create art? 

I think Rosado picked cornflakes because it is easy to use, you can break the pieces up. Rosado might have also used Cornflakes because no one else has and she was aiming to be different, and come up with something new. I think a good food to use for art would be almond nuts because you can break them, and they have a good shape.
