Every time I go for walks in the woods I'm always picturing this sort of scene whenever I look at the underbrush. I guess that's mainly my inspiration for this painting. Many thanks to Tracie76Stock for the adorable reference.

This is just gorgeous. A part of me is always searching for something like this, too, whenever I go outside. I glance underneath a leaf every now and then just in case. Its nice to think some of this could be real, at least once in a while.

Beautifully crafted. you put such emotion and thought into each of your pieces, it really touches me! 2
I love the little fae’s face, every little detail is so delicately done. And th emouse is cute to - only thing is, everything is so deep and 3D in the rest of the pic. i just felt that, next to the depth of shading/texture in the dress, the mouse looked a bit flat. Maybe just me?
A beautiful picture none the less, don’t get me wrong - i am inspired by your talent!

Very beautiful. The lighting is very well done and the soft expression on the girl’s face gives her an innocent feel. The texture of the mouse looks realistic and the dew drops are fantastic. This piece is definitely appealing to the eye and it brings out a sense of peace in the viewer. The detail in the girl’s face as well as her wings is nicely painted. Great job. 1

Very sweet and peaceful indeed, although I bet the mouse is thinking ’Hey, this is MY sleeping spot’... ~#G
