Pixies,Faeries,Brownies,Sprites,Elementals

I have been drawing flying creatures.......

for want of a better title I'll refer to them as "Faeries", although , after reading

       "The Dictionary of Possibilities "

           Colin Wilson & John Grant,

          I think I prefer the idea of

            benign Cornish piskys

               & Scottish Brownies .

Initially I was planning on over embroidering the designs, but have decided the water colour & gouache looks much better.

Beside left is the first pen rough.

Below (maybe.....if this blog behaves itself )

are some of the water colour sketches for the images I will be working with.

These I will frame as illustrations........
