She's hiding in the morning mist, tangled in the creepers and vines after a night of play. She looks rather thoughtful and perhaps a little sad. Is she jealous perhaps of her mortal cousins who roam the towns and cities freely, driving in their cars, slaves to their media and always rushing, rushing, rushing?
I don't think so. I believe she wishes we saw as she does and played to the beat of nature's rhythm.
For Sunday Sketches.
A layer of powder blue acrylic topped with some flowery tissue. A dash more paint, then a coloured pencil sketch on top.
Now, while I've got you... Don't even think of dashing off until you've popped over here. There's a wonderful opportunity to get your hands on some beautiful creations handmade by artisans from across the globe. And, what's more, every penny you pay will go to the wonderful Angel Faces Charity which helps young girl's who have suffered terrible burn injuries. You might even find something from me...
The auction runs from May 1st to May 7th. Post goes live later today - keep checking!
