The Rhymes


Humpty Dumpty

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty together again.

Hey Diddle Diddle

Hey diddle diddle,

The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon.
The little dog laughed,
To see such sport,

And the fork ran away with the spoon.

There was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe.
She had so many children, she didn’t know what to do;
She gave them some broth without any bread;
Then whipped them all soundly and put them to bed.

The cats walking around was remove to make the whole composition look more clean and organised. The size was also adjusted to make it fill up the space, however space are still retained for the side to give some space to breathe as well as to focus the attention to the centre.

Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle

The violin around was remove and people playing music was added in. This is to relate fiddle with music and to give  sense of harmony to the image. The cat was made to look like they are passing the violin so that it feels like there’s movement in the image.

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall

A giant humpty dumpty was added to the background so it feels more like the ”fall” belongs to the humpty dumptys. And also it is used to direct attention with the difference in size from the three humpty dumpty infront.

The hat was removed from the original composition to give the image more impact. And also halo was added to indicate the idea of ”old” women.
