"Fairy of the leaves" by Elena Vanin

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 9 out of 27 by Elena Vanin. ←Previous - Next→


	I made this on autumn 2000, it was thought as a sort of 'decorative' drawing, made for the pleasure of spending some time putting a leaf over the other, trying to gain effects. Probably you can see there are some straight lines over the drawing: they are the marks of where 2 pieces of paper have been united, because I made some parts I didn't like in the end, and cut them off!

17 Jan 2001	Markku Silvennoinen	Loading... Oh yes, I immediately saw this as an illustration, coloured with watercolors perhaps, on a poetry book or something similar. In the upper left corner, while the text would be in the center of the page, or maybe a bit to the lower right corner. (Okay, so I do layouts for living...). Yep, the figure and lines are great, I especially like the lower part, where the forms are only hinted at. I'm not sure about the background though. As a decorative piece, I think the clouds and the skyline could be omitted. The figure and the leaves are strong enough to stand on their own.
10 Feb 2001	Andy Willis	Loading... Gorgeous sense of design here, and you have kept the picture open with such delicacy, a skill that too often escapes me. I love the curving lines and delicate hatch...and the contrasts in line-weave. C`e una pittura magnifica. Love Andy.
30 Jan 2002	Veronika Kronnäs	Loading... I like her! She looks very realistic, a very believable fairy! I like the leaves too.
14 Jun 2004	Meike de Nooy	Loading... Really nice one! I love the scribblyness and the sinple set background! very inspiring!
