Maygreen Fairies to make your heart melt!

Just like fairies in real life.....you find them you lose them you find them again........

I'm sure I loved fairies as a child and then I became too cool for them as a teenager. As an adult I now secretly melt inside when I find beautiful artworks like these!! So when I discovered Maygreen Fairies with the cutest images tucked into little boxes, dancing in glass jars and popping their heads over a bookmark I suddenly felt like a little girl again.

Amanda is a homegrown talent of an international standard...she has been published many times and her work can be seen in Lisa Kettells Art Circus book. A book for seriously talented altered artists.





I just adore the translucent yet realistic quality to these little beings!!







From boudouir babes to bottles Amanda will alter a modern photo or use a vintage original to create her images. She is a technical whiz with photoshop too and can turn an everyday photo into a magical masterpiece. Now wouldn't you just love to scrapbook with these!!
