Mum's Birthday Cardby *Isaia

Traditional Art / Mixed Media

It was my mother's birthday on April 24th, and me, even though I can be an ass to her most of the time, and having no money to buy her something cool, I made this card for her instead. ^__^;

Thankfully she loved it , and allowed me to post it here.

I collected some flowers and leaves and stuff and pressed them for a period of a couple weeks, took them and cut them into shapes and formed the fairies' wings, and painted some other details using white acrylic mixed with some watercolors. Then I sketched the figures on a separate piece of thick paper and cut it out and stuck something underneath to make them "pop-out"
I used some nice n' thick paper, and OH god, it is soooo much better for painting than using the crappy thin office printing paper I've been using

It was actually a four series sequential illustration on the card about a little baby fairy that violently fell down and broke its wings and its mum coming to her baby's rescue and carrying it on its back as she flew away. ^w^ [/cheesy]

So I picked the image I liked most.
