Description No, not fairy princess. Not fairie princess. Fae princess.

The Fae were known for being the most beautiful creatures in the immortal world aside from the gods, and were also apt to get men (or women) into their beds quite often due to their power of allure. The gifts of song and grace often disillusioned humans. However, once a Fae lures a mortal into their bed, they turn quite viscious. You definitely don't want to mess with them.


This is dedicated to . It was entirely influenced by her style of watercolour painting and I was dying to try it out. I made this over my spring break, but my mother decided to keep it at home so she could "show it off to the ladies at work". When she sent it back to me through the mail, it got horribly bent You can still kind of see the creases in the paper, even though I tried to flatten it out by heating up the paper with my blowdryer and then placing my binders over it for an hour.

Materials used: 300g Strathmore watercolour paper, ordinary watercolour paints, colourless masking fluid, iridescent medium, white acrylic paint, Speedball permanent drawing ink (though, I quickly discovered that it was not permanent AT ALL ), assortment of paintbrushes.

As in the previous painting that I used iridescent medium in, you can't see it because of the scan. I wish you could. if you have an LCD screen, you can see wisps of it in the top part of her skirt. BUT, for the record, it's everywhere--in the curtain, in her dress, in her wings......

Please fullview for best details!
Print will be available soon.

Yes, I know her. She is just amazing! But she is a professional illustrator She probably has a lot of experience and she has been painting for years.
Your painting is really beautiful too.

Actually, this is a mixed media painting. The pearls are white acrylic paint, and there's a lot of glitter on it too, but scanners never do glitter justice thank you for the fave!

Ooooh its beautiful!! ^__^ I love the work you did on the character.. very nice! And tho colorful is good, I think you should set a theme of colors.. and tie the whole thing together. Right now its colorful but the colors are all over the place. Find a main color, then work from there ^_^ I am sure you will produce more and more gorgeous pieces soon.

Keira-Sama In reply to luciole [2007-04-03 01:45:34 +0000 UTC]

Hm, that's true....it is kind of rainbow-y. Perhaps a blue-pink theme in general would have been good, with maybe a little yellow kept in the wings for some contrast.
I will definitely be producing more pieces, and your ideas about actually looking up references for flower arranging are definitely good. Otherwise it'd probably look fake, like my sketches in my notebook that I tried.... absolutely awful. And oh-my-goodness, I didn't think you'd add me to your watch list! I'm honored! Hope to hear some good critique from you in the future
