New project (rough draft)

A few years ago, my friend Vanessa showed me an interesting picture someone sketched up of a fairy sitting on a lily pad with nothing but a pair of chopsticks. It's one of my favorites I thought it was really sexy so I decided to draw up my own version. I have the original on my old computer so once I can get into that I will have to post it for you to see. I wish I knew the name of the artist.

I can't think of a better model for this piece than Vanessa, herself. She is so naturally pretty with these big beautiful high cheek bones, petite frame and thick long hair, no makeup necessary with her. We don't speak much anymore but she was a huge part of my early years and responsible for a great deal of who I am today. I'm dedicating this one to you, mama fairy.*

I was having a really hard time bringing myself to post the finished product today because the camera really doesn't do the picture justice, but as my good friend Carlee put it "some things just look better in person rather than in pictures. For example, us." Well if that doesn't make me feel better, I don't know what will so here it is, a month of my life gone into the woods work & I couldn't be happier with it.
