What cereal does Rosado use to make her portraits? 

Cornflakes, as she was listening to R 'n' B music whilst eating cornflakes and then the idea came to her.

Why does it take so long to create each masterpiece?

Firstly she has to sketch the face of the person she's about to draw and then crush the cornflakes to the right size. She shapes the eyes, nose, and lips with a pin.

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

Michael Jackson, Bob Marley, Alicia Keys, and John Lennon. In 2013 she unveiled a piece made entirely of dirt. It was a kid on a swing that hung from a tree.

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

I think that Cornflakes was a good choice because it easy to crush and it has a colour a little bit brighter than skin tone, which is good for her portraits. I think that ricies and coco pops could also work, as they are skin tones as well, and they are easy to crush, just like Cornflakes.
