This little daisy chain fairy is a bit of a departure for me since I typically work with cool colors. I had to adjust the colors several times before I was satisfied with my color choices. I may rework her in pink tones instead of orange, but for now I’m calling her done. This painting is based on a tutorial in Linda Ravenscroft’s book, “How to Draw and Paint Fairies.” You can purchase a copy of the book at Amazon.com.

She’s gorgeous!! (in a fairy way

Thanks, Shree. I may take new photos of her in the daylight to see if I can get a better pic. I took the shot late at night in low light.
Love the orange and green so vibrantly paired!
Thanks, Elena. Initially she was peach and green but the painting looked flat to me so I bumped up the intensity of the colors.
Nice!
Thanks, Pam.
Love her! Great eyes and hair.
Thanks, sissy.
She’s adorable!
Thank you, Beth.
Love the colours! Really beautiful.
Thank you, Sandra. I must check out the fairy book you mentioned on your blog today.
