Drawing flowers is so hard for me I really wanted to challenge myself this month by incorporating them in with my faeries. Can you guess which bloom is my favourite? 🌹😂🌹

Lil sketches of Ursula. She's an optimistic and hardworking bugbear who wants humanity to leave her alone, so she can enjoy her carpentry work in peace (though she sells her work to fellow faeries.)

Oh my god FAERIES. I already think the people who design these monsters have top-tier taste, but I really do appreciate how monstrous these fairies are. As more fairies SHOULD be! I think Squot, the creepy mushroom cap bouncing a glowing bug, is my favorite.

🌿👶🌿In the Scottish Highlands, a newborn baby would be given sap from a green stick of Ash (held in a fire till the sap oozed out then mixed with honey) as its first food, to give the child strength and to protect it from being bewitched or stolen by Faeries.

Swiffer the Mail Faerie! I made her awhile ago, and thought it a good time to crack her out. Inspired by Delina, Swiffer decided to become one of several mail faeries. You didn't expect weewoos to deliver the more hefty gifts did you?

My saddened eyes and my lustrous gaze, so childlike and yet so ancient. My rosy lips, famished for affection, where melodies from faraway lands would come from, verses from hidden isles, tunes from the land of the faeries.

Day 12: All I can say is I used to love the idea of cat faeries. I filled notebooks with them as a kid.

Since my unexpected absorption into the cast of A Midsummer Night's Dream, I got inspired to sketch some faeries.

There is no lasting union between humans and faeries.

The seal wife always finds her skin in the end and returns to the sea.

The Gwragedd Annwn [Welsh lake maidens] always leave their husbands.

But sometimes there are children born with blood in their veins.
