Along with my fantasy novel endeavours, I am also working towards creating an illustrated children’s book. The book is about the fairies of a magical Isle, and all of the ways they use their magical skills to care for the earth. The aim of the book is to encourage children to view the earth as something we have the responsibility of caring for, and to show children that if we care for the earth it will care for us back.
With that being said, allow me to share some snippets of the art. These are all done with watercolour, pencil, ink, marker, and pen.
Pearla, a foraging fairy who loves to dive for pearls.Calypso, a water fairy who loves to play music for the creatures of the tide pools.Melody, a water fairy who loves to play games with the animals of Shallow Stone beach.Misty, a sky fairy who loves creating rain and stormy days.Luna, a sky fairy who loves to sit on the moon every night as it rises in the sky.Ember, a sky fairy who loves to create sunrises and sunsets.Willow, a nature fairy who loves to play games with the bunnies in the Mushroom Village.Ivy, a nature fairy that loves to dance on the forest vines, and collect fallen leaves.Daisy, a nature fairy that loves to play in theflowers and help the plants grow tall.
