To English folk the mighty oak
Is England’s noblest tree;
Its hard-grained wood is strong and good as English hearts can be...

Inspired by Cicely Mary Baker's Flower Fairies and Brian Froud's various faeries and goblins I created a dragonfly faerie. I wanted to make something less traditional but still recognizable as a faerie.

Illustrator Cicely Mary Barker was largely self-taught due to ill health.
Her Flower Fairies combined botanical sketches with characterful life drawings of local children.
Here her portrait of ‘The Garden Boy’ becomes the watchful Elm Fairy

Lavender, a favourite of the fae, has been used for centuries both medicinally & for love spells & rituals. Carrying lavender can encourage peace, love & good health. It is also a talisman of love & protection & can ward off the evil eye.💜
