With An Attitude

Today I'm showcasing the new April image from Moondrea Designs, Artist Andreia Salvia's 'Spring Fairy'.

You might look at all the beautiful shades of purples and greens with a few pinks and yellows and say 'How pretty' , 'but what is that dark aqua swirl on her face?'

When I was a teenager with very long flowing hair, we went through a 'fad' where you took a small amount of your hair and braided it separately.  Some colored these strands so they stood out even more.  At the time, these were called "Your Attitude".  

Now many years later, that different and frankly weird memory came to mind when coloring Spring Fairy.  She looked like she needed to have a special strand of hair shaded differently ~ "her attitude".  Artist choice right!   

Like most things I do that are considered Out of the Box, I always want to encourage anyone reading my blog or seeing one of my cards, to not limit yourself to the standard card size, the standard image, the same old traditional colors.  Allow yourself to do something different.  It's okay if no one likes it but you.  You are the colorist and card maker.  It's your design. 

So be sure to check out Spring Fairy on Moondrea Designs Etsy store or on the Facebook page.  There are so many beautiful designs just waiting for you there.
