Faerie girl sketchbook study
Just a little sketch of a pretty fae girl from a book cover that I really liked. I actually bought the book because of the cover. . . I do that a lot. I'm a visual person what can I say? The book is called Eyes Like Stars.
The girl in my sketch ended up looking like she has a bit more of an edge to her personality than the soft and gentle girl on the cover of the book. Maybe I was feeling edgy myself that day? Who knows.
In any case it was a fun drawing to do. Next I need to draw a fairy with wings or something super fantastic right?
Now I must go friends, my boy just woke up with a cough. A summer cold is no fun. No fun at all.
Hope you all have a good weekend and do something fun!
Your fairy is cute. And I like the haircut. Have a good weekend. Hope you can tame that cough!
ReplyDeleteGreat drawing! I'll have to check out the book. Aw, I'm sorry your little guy has a cough. Sounds like a good opportunity for a quiet, snuggly morning!
ReplyDeleteHey I had a shag haircut like that in my younger days. Great sketch. She sure does have and "edge" sort of vampirish or just plain vamp. Anyhow....she's great. Good thoughts and prayers for your little guy.
ReplyDeleteI hope your boy gets over his cough soon, and you DON"T catch it!
ReplyDeleteAmusant effectivement et réussi ce portrait...
ReplyDeleteTout comme vous j'achète souvent parce que l'étiquette m'inspire. Je faisais ça autrefois avec le vin... Maintenant que j'aime le vin, j'ai changé mon fusil d'épaule!!!
J'espère que votre petit garçon va aller mieux.
Gros bisous à vous et bon weekend.
Tell me about it,I have one. Cough. Cough. Photos just give us a push off. From there, we add ourselves. Edgy can be more interesting than soft and fairy-like. Happy painting.
ReplyDeleteOh she really is a gorgeous girl isn't she? I can see why you would want to draw her! I would LOVE to sit with a cup of tea in one hand and your sketchbook in the other. I'm sure I'd be looking through it for hours! Of course I'd have to hide mine away for a while afterwards, lol!
ReplyDeleteI wrote a poem about fairies once ... using the names of wild flowers, kept my granddaughter amused.
ReplyDeleteSorry about your little man, such a worry, hope he's fit and well soon.
I think your girl is a bit of a tinkerbell!
I hope your son gets better soon, Crystal!! So sad to see them not feeling well.! and I hope you paint the fairy with wings!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got some sketching time in before your patient woke up! Hope he feels better soon!
ReplyDeleteLovely sketch, sorry about your son.. i hope he gets better soon, cheers!
ReplyDeleteA kid with a cold is a sad kid. I hope he's over it soon.
ReplyDeleteThis sketch reminds me of a super hero. the Green Hornet's girl friend maybe? She's got a bit of a come hither look in her eye.
makes me want to doodle more. been buried with so much lawbooks that i find this post wonderful to the point that it makes me want to throw those lawbooks and sketch myself something instead. in any case, hope you're feeling better
ReplyDeleteGreat fun, would love to see you pursue a fantasy type series
