It’s What You Believe

May
2012

I’ve been working on my Believe Fairy Journal lately while sitting on the couch in the evenings. Thought I’d start sharing some of those pages with you. This is the first page.

The whole journal is going to be filled with all things fantasy, fairy, magic, and make believe. I just got myself some more artsy supplies that I can use in the house when I want to journal. It is so much easier than having to run out to my studio to get supplies, and then have to take them back when I’m done so I’ll have them out there!

And the Believe Fairy Journal continues…

Believe Fairy Visual Journal

By ArtChick

Apr
2012

In my ongoing effort to get my creative juices flowing again, I’ve decided to start a brand new Visual Journal. I’m calling it Believe, and it will be filled mostly with fairy and fantasy-related art, doodles, prose, poetry, doodles, and what-nots. I’ve only done the cover so far.

I’ve always believed in fairies. I can prove they exist, because they are constantly stealing socks from my dryer! So I figured, why not devote an entire visual journal to them? Do YOU believe in fairies?

There’s so much magic in the world of fairy, after all. It’s a sort of wonderful, magical Neverland, waiting to be explored on the pages of my journal. A place where dreams come true, and a place where anything is possible. I think my mom is guiding me to this…to a place that will let me forget my troubles and find some sunshine. If I just close my eyes, my inspiration will be waiting…and I can hear her saying…

You know that place between sleep and awake, the place where you can still remember dreaming?

That’s where I’ll always love you…that’s where I’ll be waiting.

Dyana the Fairy

By ArtChick

This is the fairy, Dyana. She is a huntress of sorts. I drew her several years ago when I was teaching art at the local junior high school. Some students knew I liked fairies and had asked me to draw one for them to see, during a lull we had in class time. This was the result. I just used the colored pencils we had in the Art Room.

Shayna the Elf

Shayna the Elf is a fairy cousin. Just another of my fairy-like creatures I’ve pulled from my imagination. She is drawn with colored pencils and a Sharpie. I think she needs to have a brother, so I’ll need to draw him soon. I really like her hair…kind of sassy! I wish I could get away with hair like that.

Pyx the Fairy

By ArtChick

2010

I’ve been doing some drawing lately, creating some fairy characters based on old sketches I did several years ago. I enjoy creating them…not sure where they come from inside my head, but it’s fun turning those images into fairy drawings. I just used colored pencils and my trusty ultrafine Sharpie.

This fairy is named Pyx. Not sure why…it just seems to suit her.
