I joined an ATC swap where you can use any medium as long as it has a fairy in it. I already have a fairy stamp, which I love so, I decided to use that. The stamped image looks like the fairy is about to leap into flight so, I had the idea of putting her in a patch of mushrooms and having it look like she is leaping from one to the other.
The mushrooms are made by penciling out the basic shape, then I went back in with a black art pen and drew in the final lines and accent shading. From there I colored it in with various shades of Copic markers ranging from a yellow/brown hue to a dark brown hue in the shadows. I experimented with using a little pearl water paint on top of that to make it slightly shine. The picture does not pick up the shine though.
As always, I feel like I'm learning how to use different paints with everything I do. On the backround I used watercolors. I tried various shades and I think I like the one that has the darkest blue backround the best.
Here are the results:
