SciFi and Fantasy Art deva by Sanna H. Hanskala

This is a deva, a spirit of nature, inspired by the forementioned Narnia books by C.S. Lewis. She is a light, innocent deva of some fragile deciduos tree such as birch or willow. She could dance in the sun, her whole nature is to be an innocent dancer. But if you like her, you can imagine her to be whatever you like :) She could be escaping something, perhaps the trees of her forest are being cut down and she is asking for help and forgiveness (this is the part inspired by Narnia books). Another watercolor painting.

14 Aug 1998	Jeffrey Verzak	Loading... I love the subtle shading in this. The use of a mainly monochromatic scheme works so well here.
22 Feb 1999	Anon.	Loading... eeeewwwwwwwww at least try!!!
28 Sep 1999	Guess!	Loading... I absolutley love your use of colour. I think your pics should all be published as posters. I want them on my wall!
24 Dec 1999	Lisa Augustine	Loading... This is my favorite of your whole beautiful collection. I like the apple green color, and the mysterious-like image of the deva. The color isn't too bright- just enough with pleasant blending-- I think you'd make a perfect children's book (8-15 age) illustrator- or a greeting card illustrator! You should start your own line of greeting cards. Good Luck!
13 May 2000	Kelsey A. Reid	Loading... Lovely! I like the background especially. Having just started playing with watercolor myself, I know it can be a difficult medium.
21 Feb 2002	Rachel <rachel_	Loading... Wonderful use of wet-into-wet... pretty... never thought of using that technique for a fairy... It's beautiful...
22 May 2002	Cheetah	Loading... I like the shading affect its awesome
