I'm going to pretend it's Spring, anyway!


This is Gwyneth, my second Flower Fairy. I had a lot of fun experimenting with her dress- handpainting on silk with alcohol inks! Then to get the watercolor effects-- all very interesting. The weather is still dreary and cold- windy here so perhaps tomorrow I will have better luck getting good shots of her. These were taken indoors by a window- overcast day. Now great for capturing color, I'm afraid!

Hello Veronica!
You wanna come and play, huh? Yeah, it's fun- and it's just like playing too! Especially when it comes to the dresssing part-- love that! For this one I hand painted dyes onto silk- then let them dry- then did an overwash of diluted dyes for the water color effect. It was fun- sort of a practice run for another sculpt I have in mind...
Where do you live?

Hey Deb,
