THE FUN OF
FAIRIES
This month the fun is with fairies and flowers, but the tutorials are on the background patterns—and the odd mushroom. I will also offer two rose patterns for you to copy and trace.
The
fairies in this color book picture are dancing and celebrating with their king
and queen. You’re welcome to trace the
fairies into your pictures if you like.
One
day my granddaughter and I went around the house and yard searching out the
possible hiding places for fairies. It was a fun activity, and a good one for
grandma’s crusty imagination. There can be magic in this world if we’re willing
to create it—or just believe.
Fairies
are just small people with wings added. Their wings can be of the butterfly,
dragonfly, angel, bird, or bat type—any type, really. And their clothes can be ethereal,
hardy and rough, short everything, long everything, and from all types of
nature. For instance, one of the fairies I drew had short pixie-like clothing
and wings made of spider web. (Not
pictured)
Here
are two rose picture patterns, and examples of those patterns painted with
acrylics. I painted pink and deep plum colored roses, but you can make the
roses any color you like.
Framed
and on the wall. Voila!
Now,
for your first tutorial—
WEEK 1
This
Bamboo Sky can be used in any picture that needs sky in it. It can be colored with blues and purples,
oranges and yellows, or magenta’s and pinks—any combination of three or four colors
close on the color wheel.
