Artist's Comments

This is a watercolor faerie I recently completed. The leaves are starting to turn, the night air is crisp and the mountain view just outside my bedroom window is shrouded in fog most mornings. Autumn must be swiftly on the way, and I was itching to paint an autumn fae. It just so happened that I was also itching to paint faeries themed after some stones I recently bought (carnelian is an orange-red, or "autumn brown" stone), and FAE Forum is having an "autumn" themed art show next month. It all worked out, though I'm not sure I'd paint this many leaves again, at least not for a while.

I also managed to submit it for next month's EMG-Zine. We'll see what happens!

It looks wonderful, the only thing I can think to comment about it is; If those are four wings, it looks slightly as if they're placed at different sides of her back, the smaller ones look angled towards her left (the side we see) yet the bigger wings look like they're angled the other way, I'm absolutely no expert, but you could have possibly drawn the closest wing (Of the bigger set) angled more? 'Closer to the camera' sort of thing? I'm no good at explaining this I'm sorry ^^;

Other than that it caught my eye straight away and made me want to see it upclose. The colours are fantastic and the pose elegant yet somewhat seductive, overal the piece is extremely beautiful ^_^

I like your watercolor look, it's really different. Didn't know you did anything outside tablet pieces, nice.
