Gathering of the Figments

For the up-coming competition I was really stuck on what to right, but I was browsing through some of my favourite websites, and there's one by my favourite artist. And the pictures on there are all fantasy art of dragons, mermaids and fairies, with a few of unicorns etc.

They are so amazingly beautiful, you'd have to be made of stone to not be inspired by them. And so I've gazed at half a dozen of my favourite pictures on there, and made up a story behind each of the characters in there, and so I have my characters. They are so breath-taking, I demand you all go and look at them now.

The artist is called Selina Fenech, and her web address is http://www.selinafenech.com/

My favourite one is Gossamer Princess, under fairy art.

I know

My mum's also into sewing, like cross stitching pictures, not the childish ones, but she does some of Selina Fenechs, She did Love Me Not, which is one of an angel, and she;s working on a mermaid one called Treasures.

I'm doing Gossamers Princess of course, but i'm only on the second page and it's like 30 pages or something =[

I might take a picture and post it in the arts'n'crafts section later.

Yeaaah, my mum's sewn the picture, it's really good, but it's at the framers now.

I will take a picture when it comes back beautiful and framed =]

Page? The cross stitching I remember would be a big sheet of fabric and you'd stick one part in a circle, and when you were done with that circular portion, you'd move it. I did a big fishy one once.

Uh...I mean...I LOVE TO FISH!

My favorite one was Impossible love. They're all so emotional! Hey butterflii, how do you turn those into cross stitches? I enjoy doing them, but I don't know how to do it without a diagram. Sad
