Lavender Fairy



Coloured pencil on Stonehenge paper 7" x 5"


If there are fairies at the bottom of the garden then I hope they look something like this.... because of where I live it had to be a Lavender Fairy of course!


The coloured pencil was a departure for me - I liked that I could get detail with them easily but I find them a little difficult and not as satisfying as actual paint.



I always think that a fairy must have wings something like a butterfly, but of course it doesn't have to be that way they could be very fine and transparent like a fly.





When I fiddled with this drawing in a software programme and made it negative, I rather liked the look of the wings.... interesting.
