I haven't been painting for 3 months, so I wanted to start with a small one, this is a 2,5x3,5inch watercolor painting of elven ranger, Arie...

The original sold but I plan to add ACEO prints and maybe a bag.

This week I realy worked hard. I finished 3 artworks and sketched 6.

I also finished a serie of gazing... Gazing butterflies and Gazing stars. I mostly paint to fixed size papers but this time I used 6x11 paper. I put the character to the corner and the gazing objects to another.

Here they are, click to enlage.

I finished a new piece, My Precious - because I am holding her in my hand and she is peacefuly sleeping. I like her wings very much, I think this is the best wings I have ever painted. I also like her skin tone, pink and magical. Yes she is naked but I thought I should gave her a little freedom beside holding her in my hand :)

By the way I hate domination, so this is just a pieceful scene like a little butterfly perch on your hand...

Actualy this is my second attemt for this concept. The first one was also cute but I thought I like to see something different and I re-paint it.

The first version is:

Close up to first fairy:

I also like this little fairy, she has a very interesting expression like she is dreaming something magical and krunky...

This is my newest art Yvaine. I inspired from Neil Gaiman's book Stardust, she is a fallen star. I saw her while she is gazing to the stars and crying... because she is missing her mom and sisters above the sky.

I used watercolor on paper, size: 9x12. I am very satsified with the result.

I also made a flash animation to simulate the process of sketch to painting...

I just listed new products of new artworks. 

Necklaces

Element necklaces are my favorites but I also like the mushroom pixie necklace. I use different colored silky cords to match with the artwork. Necklaces are handmade. They are 1 inch (tiny and cute) but images are very high quality so they will amaze you by the details of this little charms.

Rings

They look very joyful if you wear them togather. They look like precious stones from far but when you look them close, you see the real "treasury" in them. They are also 1 inch. Rings are adjustable to fit all fingers.

Brooches

These are very cute frames to wear on your bag, hat or jacket... 1 inch size.

ACEO prints

ACEOs are best way to collect art - economical and cute. My ACEOs are limited to 100 prints, all signed, numbered and dated on back side.

5x7 prints are also available here

Originals are also available here and here

Metal Bookmarks

Fairies live in your books to show you the page that you were... this idea makes me feel good :) I love my metal bookmarks.

I recently paint a mini ACEO of lilac mermaid. Her name is lilac, because of her deep eyes... I guess I inspired from Game of Thrones, Daenerys eyes - I am reading the series without breathing.

I made a flash animation of sketch to painting motion. You may like to see...

Finaly I finished Earth element and the element series have completed.

I used very few objects to indicate the elements. They are female characters and their hair is the charm of the element. I used Greek symbols of the elements on their foreheads.

Air is light blue and the hair is blowing like wind, I also hide a kite between her hair. Her eyes are ice blue...

Fire is lile a flaming hair... I also made her eyes like a burning fire.

Earth, I thought it should be green, the hardest element for me was Earth. I made many sketches and failed paintings. Finaly made her hair like a grass and swirling vines with leaves.

Water, - which is my element (I am cancer) - her hair is like waves of the ocean, I also hide little paper ship between these waves.

There is also a watercolor tutorial for Air Element Here.
