We got a bit too much time in our hands in France so my friend got me to do a kind of self portrait as a fairy lol, I hope you enjoy it! The flower was supposed to be chamomile but I think I gave it too many leaves so now it resembles a daisy/chamomile hybrid! Medium: Watercolour and Watercolour Pencils on Cartridge paper

Really nicely done. The pose and the coloring are intriguing and the background is great. This is beautiful work!

:-) Zoe Mitchell-Tan replies: "Thanks so much! I was really worried some botanical artist out there was going to flame me for drawing the flowers wrong lol"

Great picture! I love the background. The proportions may be a bit off, but the shading is excellent.

Your use of colours is amazing. They fit so well with the picture. Almost all of them brown an green, and then the white flower that makes it all look so much brighter. That's wonderful.

:-) Zoe Mitchell-Tan replies: "Thanks so much! =D I gotta say being in Framce with not much to do kinda makes you a more creative person lol"

very pretty. i love the control that you get with watercolor pencils! all of you works are great and i think that for the ones that were digitally painted... you have a fine grasp on what you are doing... with a bit more practive i think that you will do great things with it! Blessings!

:-) Zoe Mitchell-Tan replies: "Thanks for the comment! I'm still working on digital painting etc.. lol I'm getting there! kinda.. I still don't understand how the colour pallete is so wide but I still always manage to get such a limited range of colours, meh I'll figure this mystery out one day! Thanks so much again for your comment! "
