First Flight Print

As part of my Wildlife Moms & Babies series, I had the idea of portraying the exciting event of baby's-first-steps, but in the fairy world. My first task was to create a fantasy-style background for the fairies to live in, but the biggest challenge for me was my first painting with a human face. I sketched dozens of ladies' faces before attempting to paint one. I want the viewer to see the momma fairy as the protective mother who is proud of her baby's first flight, but also scared of her being hurt. Navi Kaur helped me with the "woman of colour" skin tones. I had an old frame that I wanted to re-use, and I painted over the scene that was previously on the masonite panel.
