Fairies, hares and crows.

Anyone who knows me will know that I get a bit obsessed about things. For months now I've loved painting hares. I love how scruffy and gangly they are. I really love painting their fur. This all began with a commission to paint a moongazing hare on a stone.


 

 Many hares later and I'm still painting them on stone, slate, canvas and paper. I've recently added crows to that obsession after a steampunk crow challenge.

 I've always loved drawing fairies so now I'm putting all those elements together. Here' a work in progress picture of fairies, a hare and a crow along with a moon. So far I've sketched the idea, drawn pen detail and splashed some watercolour on the background then sprinkled it with salt. We'll see how it turns out.x
