The Hermit and the Fairy

The Hermit of the Mossy Swamp

"Here I introduce two new characters in Mushy-Mushy's world:
the first is the Hermit of the Mossy Swamp and the second the Fairy of the Fireflies Pond.

The Mossy Swamp is set in the east side of the Spore Forest (where Mushy-Mushy lives) and the Fireflies Pond on the west side of it.

The Hermit is a lonely fellow whose only friend is a Roly-poly bug named Shieldy. Nobody knows what kind of creature hides beneath that cloak, and nobody wants to really know it. IHIHIH! ^_^  He can clearly see through the darkness and his eyes sparkle of an icy light blue. He isn't a bad creature, but he loves to play pranks to whoever is so unlucky to approach his swamp. And when it happens he laughs like crazy showing his white smile made by several sharp teeth. A bit creepy actually. ^_^'

The Fairy of the Fireflies Pond

The Fairy is also known as the Indigo Witch and everybody knows that she is a very good and wise creature, but also so hard to find.
It is told that she has hundreds of years and that once was a pixie enchantress. How she became a snail is still a mystery. Because of her being a snail, she talks and walks very slowly but she doesn't leaves slime to her passage! Ahahah! XD
She is blind, but she says that she can see through her mind.
The pond where she lives is a quite spot hidden in a faraway place surrounded by rocks that shine like diamonds under the fireflies glows.
Her aide is, of course, a firefly named Glowy.

Hope that you like them! ^_^

"I drew this Pixie right next my Mushy-Mushy (of the previous post "Time to rest"), so now they are on the same cardboard. Ihihih! ^_^
I used pencil, watercolor and black pen."

My Thesis project

Pixie02

"As yesterday I finally did my thesis, I can now show the illustrations of my project. ^_^
This in particular is the first one.
The story is about a little pixie that wants to know how to be an adult, so he decide to begin a journey to find it out without anybody's help.
During this journey, he meet someone very special that wants to stand by his side and also so many troubles to go through! XD
I used watercolor and coloured pencils on canvas for almost all illustrations of the book."

Sleep Sleep, little Pixie...

Baby Pixie01

"One day a classmate of mine, told me and the other girls of the group that she was pregnant. We were all so excited! XD
So we decided to make her a little present for her baby, which was a cute pijiama and a congratulations card with an illustration made by each of us.
This in particular was my illustration. I made a baby dressed like a pixie on a red leaf that is sleeping. ^_^ eheh! If I remember well, I chose to put it in an Autumn atmosphere, because the baby should have born in that season... ^_^ eheh.
I used ink and I coloured it by PC."

Pixie's working day

Pixie02

"The thing that I always loved about pixie's stories was that, in the illustrations, they were always smiling at work.
It seems like they're having fun for just doing something toghether! ^_^
I wanted to convey the same atmosphere of joy and peace that this stories always made me feel while reading.
Technique used: ink and watercolor. "

"As everybody can see, I love Fantasy and, most of all, stories about fairies and pixies.
Since I was a child, parents and relatives were used to buy me illustrated books full of colourful pictures about "the little people" and all the animals of the forest.
This is the reason why I started to draw this kind of characters and topic.
In this picture you can see how I imagine pixies: little kids with green skin that likes to laugh and play. ^_^
My thesis book is based on the adventures of one of this pixies. But I'll post it later... ehehe! XD
This pictures is done with ink and watercolor."
