This week's theme is "Taking Flight!" *love!*
This theme conjured so many ideas in my head and I had aspirations of everything from a scaly dragon breathing fire, to a baby bird taking the first leap, to a hot air balloon.... so many choices!
Again, I wanted to stay true to how I am playing with this exercise. I set a pad and pencil in front of me and let whatever wanted out the most to become what filled the page.
Yes, those are flying apple faeries. Yes, I realized that's not really how apples are picked this time of year. Yes, I realize that you probably wouldn't plant just one apple tree on a cliff.
But, dream with me for a moment and you can see how absolutely wonderful and charming this could be!
The flight patterns are a bit dizzy. Either that or I am seeing sewing stitches in everything from the absurd amount of time I have spent with my sewing machine the last few days.
Adorable, no?
Who's in the mood for an apple pie? I kid... I kid! I wouldn't really try and eat a magical faerie apple.
Promise!
Thanks for day dreaming with me!!
And won't you check out all my fellow artists here!
Well Christie that was fun. Apple Faeris. Would never have thought of that. Love your interpretation.
