This a closer look at the pen and ink drawing. I drew Mustardseed on a piece of vellum which I then pasted over the background. I wanted an animation cell effect, while still being able to see the colours behind. Plus, it hopefully gives the fairy a sence of importance. Inspired by Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Nights Dream'.

:-) Erika Schulz replies: "Thanks very much. I think all Shakespeare lovers all secretly wish to be a fairy in A Midsummer Nights Dream. It would be soooo cool."
