Paint Party Friday

Hi Guys this is my first piece for Paint Party Fridays. It's a new weekly challenge site hosted by Kristin and Eva. Each week people will be posting a painting and sharing it with everyone else!

If you would like to find out more about this fun activity you can click on the 'Paint Party Friday' button on my side bar, and check out everyone elses beautiful work.



This week I'm showing my fun painting 'Day Dream Fairy' which I painted in mostly oils and some acrylics. I really enjoyed painting this one inbetween my butterfly commission that I have been working on. Check out my previous post if you haven't seen butterfly number two!

Hope you're all having a great weekend, I'm off to check out everyone elses beautiful work :0)

(Update: I just wanted to share how my little fairy dreamer turned out as a pendant too! :0)
She has just been added to my shop!

  1. Hi Nicola. Thx for stopping by my blog and hope you are having as much fun with this new event PPF that Kristin and Eva are hosting. Your little fairy is just so awesome. I like that it's in oils too. I have a hard time working with oils. Great job. Love it! Have a great weekend.

  7. Such a lovely image of a fairy and her leggings give that whimsical feel to her, especially the way she holds her legs contemplating the world around her. Beautiful work.
