SciFi and Fantasy Art Bathing beauties by Anne Wipf

Tag As FavoriteComment		In the hot summer days, fairies like to go bathing, even if they don't swim, their wings being too brittle ; by they like to follow the stream, comfortably sat on floating flowers...

This is the first and the last collage I ever did : I'm not very talented for that, paper always sticks on my fingers and not on the canvas ! And it is the first time I painted something (the fairies, in the occurence) directly in Photoshop instead of using a scan.

The lanscape is inspired by a proximate town, St-Céré (4000 inhabitants).

Collage + acrylic on canvas + Photoshop.

Lovely atmosphere in the "Bathing Beauties"! And the new crazy wizards series was charming and funny. Something for childrens books perhaps! Au revoir

Beautiful ... I think this is my favourite in your gallery. Right away it drew my eye.

:-) Anne Wipf replies: "Thank you 1 I’ll probably re-do the fairies one day: if I like my painting/sticking, my first drawing with photoshop (the fairies) was not very successful 8"
