You are probably wondering why this lovely young lady is wearing baseball gloves? I have wondered about that myself. Sometimes things just happen when drawing a picture. Hmmmm . . . . If you have any ideas, I'd love to hear from you!This picture is a mixture of art mediums. I used graphite pencils to sketch my idea onto the paper. I put in the detail with indelible ink using various sized ink tips, erasing the pencil lines. My beloved Prismacolor pencils added color--after which I inked in crucial lines and detail which the beezwax from the colored pencils had blurred. I scanned the picture into my computer. Then I used an art program to add bright sparkles and shine to the faery and gloves.

Well Sissy Bea it is perfectly obvious to me...she is our designated fairy catcher. She needs an especially fluffy mit so as not to damage the merchandise. What I want to know is...do you believe in catch and release???

Beth I believe she is wearing the gloves in order to capture all of the light and love and beauty she sees around her, and to hold it forever within her heart....
which indeed, I think worked!.....:) much love to my new friend
I am thinking, the baseball gloves resemble the strength within. We often think something fragile and yet there is much fight left within; unseen.
I have watched sick people, really sick, with no life shinning through them and yet; when all hope is lost this inner strength seems to emerge.
This is what I got from your picture as my eyes caressed her.
