peridot faerie queen Aug 6, 2009by amanda1 Comment

Today I decided to sketch out a faeire with no idea where it would lead me. After the initial gesture, I roughed out this skinny faerie in a fancy crown and when I picked colors I though it might be neat to honor August with a peridot scheme. Here she is, close up  for a bit of detail (which isn’t much seeing as how I did this in an hour) and then far away.
