"If we opened our minds to enjoyment, we might find tranquil pleasures
spread about us on every side. We might live with the angels that visit us on every sunbeam, and sit with the fairies who wait on every flower. "
~Samuel Smiles
This is another fairy I did for a friend . I could not quite get the background put together right for the forest background I was trying to create .Frusterated , I took a break .I walked the length of our neighborhood with my daughter to take in some of the fresh spring air( It was May when I did this one)
The trees were still in bloom . Flowers were abundant after the long stretch of rainy weather .Each neighbor we passed had a different array of blooming flowers and budding bushes in their front yards. It was my daughter that spotted a butterfly resting on a pink blossom and said it looked like fairy wings.
Then,filled with a childs gift of inspiration , I found myself taking this creation in a new direction . I found some photo's of cherry blossom trees , some branches , and a suitable flower perch , photoshoped them together to create an enchanting "cherry blossom faerie"
