Fairy Series

This is a watercolor painting I did from a sketch done in Bali--I got the inspiration of creating a Fairy Series paintings while staying in Ubud, Bali is---such a mystical Island. I actually met a fairy there....

There's a little Fairy on my coffee table. A painting I did awhile ago. I catch myself doing a lot of Fairy doodles and sketches . Now I have a little fairy friend I can take with me where ever I go.
I can even tell her all my deepest secrets.

Happy New Year!!

Some sketches from our European trip , Dec of 2008 done in my Moleskin artist book.
This was a sketch during our flight from New York to London

Another one in the plane (British Airways) It amazes me how other people pass their time away during the flight--some pick their noses.

Lobby of Vienna Intercon Hotel at 6:00 AM. I woke up very early and couldn't go back to sleep. So I went to the lobby and sketched.

My lunch: Goulash--I loved it and decided to get the recipe and bought some ingredients to take home. I ate this in a local restaurant in Vienna--far from the tourist spot.

A chic Viennese girl. I loved her outfit, beret and all.

Train ride from Vienna, Austria to Budapest, Hungary ( someone is sleeping)
