I love painting and started out with the idea I needed to be a representative artist. My early heroes were Vargas, Olivia, Michelangelo and Sulamith Wolfing. I was inspired to explore watercolor and gauche via their inspiration.
This image is in pen and ink which I haven't worked in for a very long time. I love the feeling that the fairy is a bit haggard and elderly. I always envisioned that the fey world was filled with a bunch of different fairies, not just the bright, cute sparkle-covered ones. Some were kind of menacing too in my imagination.

Nice! You get the sense that maybe the kid's going to get more than she can handle.^^
