PINOCCHIO & PINOCCHIA

Bryan Tyler Nelson		  
 
The story by Carlo Collodi an Italian author was originally a serial between 1881 and 1883, and then later completed as a book for children in February 1883. The story is of the adventures of mischievous Pinocchio an animated marionette, and his poor father, a woodcarver named Geppetto. It is considered a classic of children’s literature.

For more then a hundred years Pinocchio did not have a girlfriend. Now with the direction and inspiration of my friend, August Coppola, Pinocchio and his love Pinocchia (his Twiggy), are created here. No stain or coloring agent were used, except for the facial features.
