The Princess and the Pauper (Arabella) novel Chapter 265

Chapter 265 

Even though Molly had studied colour aesthetics, the idea of creating an abstract painting was still a bit of a mountain to climb. 

“Just go for it,” Arabella handed her the paint, “I’ve got your back.” 

The other designers turned to paint to hide the stains on their clothes a quick and easy solution. 

How to stand out in the sea of “paint creations“. 

After a moment, Molly recalled a painting from her childhood that hung on the wall. A light bulb went off, and she had her inspiration. 

“Look, designer numbei 16 hurt her hands. I remember her assistant was injured, too. Right?” 

“They’re still competing despite their injuries. Their grit and determination is something we can all learn from.“” 

“And the fact that they can still produce such great work with injured hands, the other designers should really take a good look at themselves.” “Yeah.” 

With only ten designers and their assistants left on stage, the judges and the audience had more time to focus on them. 

Molly started to paint the stains on the clothes black, green, and grey. 

It looked amateurish, like a kid’s doodle, without any specific shape. 

“Even though she understands colour aesthetics and used black, grey, white, blue, green, and brown perfectly, this looks more like a child’s doodle than a painting.” “She probably never learned how to paint.” 

“Unless the design is unique, she probably won’t reach the top three.” 

“Such a shame. I thought she was talented. I didn’t realize her painting skills were so poor.” 

After Molly finished painting the dress, the other designers and assistants couldn’t help but laugh. 

Everyone could see each other in this competition. With only ten contestants and their assistants left, no one dared to cheat. 

Yolanda glanced at Molly’s work and sneered, “What a hot mess. 

At that moment, Yolanda was standing next to designer number 9 as an assistant, only responsible for passing items and not doing anything else. 

Fortunately, in this round, designer number 9 did well. He drew a traditional oil painting. The flowers and birds on the skirt were so lifelike, Yolanda was sure they 

would win! 

Meanwhile, Myra’s designer, number 1 and 2, were already eliminated. Designer number 3 painted a black and white landscape on the skirt, full of artistic conception. 

Designer number 4 painted flowers, colourful flowers blooming on the skirt, a sight for sore eyes. 

In comparison, Molly’s doodle of various colours, not only lacked a specific pattern but also looked chaotic.. 

“Bella, I’m not that good at painting.” Molly looked at her work, “But I think it should look good when worn.” 

Next up was the tailoring design. 

Molly picked up the scissors, cut off the excess sleeves, and made a big bow at the chest. 

She tailored the skirt to accentuate the waistline.
