I watched the video tutorial with all its steps and did use some of the many tips. I drew this "Fairie Queen," on my own by eye, using the illustrations for references. This tutorial is challenging, but perfect to flex my drawing skills.
I used my Graphgear 1000 Pentel Pencil to draw this fairie on drawing paper. When I was satisfied with the drawing, I transferred the lines of the fairie into my Canson XL watercolor book, using graphite paper.
I painted this fairie using Prima aand Jane Daveport watercolor sets, but the crown was painted in two shades of gold from Fine Tec Pearlescent Colors. The line detail was done in Molotow Blackliner and white highlights were in Dr. Ph. Martin's Bleed Proof White. The additional gold glitter on the fairie's hair was done with Gansai Tambi Gem Colors.
I loved the challenge of Lucy Brydon's tutorials!

Hi, Carla! Thanks for another fun submission to our challenge at A Place to Start! Your freehand drawing is nice. Your Fairy Queen is cute!
Sorry for the tardy visit. The Hubster and I celebrated 57 years of marriage on August 2nd and we have taken the entire month off from everything but each other!
