this is the last of my seasonal fairies. i got stuck on this, because i love autumn, especially with the colours we're getting this year, and i'm enjoying it thourougly and feeling absolutely no enthusiasm about making a spring collage. it got inspiring again when i thought of a certain spring flower that i love very much and that grows in mountainous areas and northern countries where the spring is long but slow. the latin name of it is pulsatilla vernalis, i know it as "mosippa". i put my fairy in among such pulsatillas and called her the fairy of the northern spring.

sallyanne: thank you :)!
oldmangrumpy: thanks! it just shouts "home!" to me, so you're not far off :).
lylejk: hehe, it may be the pixie dust, it may also be the fairy tickling you with a fuzzy pulsatilla bud! and thanks.
issabella: thank you :)!
wallace: thanks! hmm, her ears and mouth are okay though, so you don't need to fear she will eat you :heh
erisian: :ffy it did, and your advice was good as usual. on the point of art, that is, not on the point of hot drinks.

Where do you find the faces with such big eyes and small other features, or do you take regular faces and change them yourself?
