Birds and Fairies, April 2021
Birds and Fairies
I used to birdwatch as a kid around our neighborhood, writing down every bird I saw, where I saw it, and what it was doing. I loved watching them. I’ve already done a few larger paintings of birds and fairies interacting—and they have a tolerance for each other that I find adorable. I hope you will too.
These are 34 paintings for April of 2021—30 daily paintings, 4 large paintings. The more I paint these fairies, the more I understand them and what they are like…and I hope you find them joyful and playful and happy like I do. Let me know if you want to buy originals. I do not have them on Etsy yet, so currently this is where they are. When I get a bit more money, I will set this up to be a marketplace for them. Thank you for your patience and your encouragement!
