What to do next after mermaids - I wanted to do something fun and imaginative and above all I wanted to use color.
I honestly do not know how this painting began but I like how it turned out.
I began with my three fairies and slowly added more and more to the picture.

Three fairies in different positions. |
 |
I added more details to fairies blocked in the mushroom and used ferns as background. |
 |
Added varying heights of flowers.
|
 |
Yellow cinquefoil, purple violets, red poppies and two woodland lady slippers. |

Yellow cinquefoil and a bright red poppy. |

I began to add leaves. |

Finally I added a red ribbon to complete the picture. |
