This is a sketch I made this week of a sweet fairy, sitting on a mushroom. I haven’t sketched with soft pastels for some time. It’s a medium I used to work in a lot, so it was fun to re-visit it between paintings. I am still in the sketching phase for my next painting, so hopefully I will get started on the painting next week. Oh…to have long purple hair! 🙂
I am off to dust my daughter’s room. She arrives home from college tomorrow for her spring break. I can’t wait to giver her a great big hug!
Have a wonderful, creative, day, Janell
That’s beautiful, Janell. You should really revisit pastels more often. 🙂 Enjoy your time with your daughter!

Oh, to have long purple hair . . . and such slim, flexible limbs! 🙂 I love how she’s crouched, ready to jump off. Enjoy your daughter’s visit!

Eva, Thanks. We are having a great time, sitting at the dining room table across from each other on our laptops! HA! Actually, we are off to a reception at a little gallery that has 6 of my paintings on display in a few minutes. The start of a great fairy inspired week! Hope you enjoy your week, too!
