Oh Now This Is Just Silly
A young woman named FaeNixie loved making art, and practiced painting all day long to become the very best in all her town. But one day, she was completely stumped. She looked around her room, full of art pieces featuring mystical rainbows, sci-fi landscapes of a futuristic Cairo, and a portrait of  Alexander SkarsgÃ¥rd that looked so real, you could start a conversation with it. But nothing inspired her. Had she really created everything there was to create? Depressed, she looked out her window, and made a wish on a nearby tea for inspiration to return to her. The next morning, she sprung out of bed, and used her skill in painting

This is a 5" x 7" inked and then painted with watercolours. Highlighting is done with colour pencil.

I really love how this turned out. Originally I wasn't going to add the Victorian design, but the dh suggested that something else was needed in the background. I'm glad I took the advice -- but at the same time, it was pretty stressful. I was forced to freehand it with ink because you couldn't see pencil lines where I had painted already. (Obviously the Victorian design was a very last minute idea.)
