Description This is made based on the Monthly theme of "Spring" by the group #KingdomOfSweden

EDIT; I forgot that this was ALSO for #theme-of-the-week 's "Adventures in spring challenge, I swear I just forgot to mention it! *goldfish-memory* and also it seems like the scanner had problem scanning it, it looks blurry at some places...


Actually I started on this painting in March somewhere and just bareley finished. I had so many ups and downs. And not to mention, she has been bugging me in my head for an even longer time XD

To me, nothing says "Spring in Sweden" more than the tough Snowdrops, shy Scillas,(my favs) and the occasional sights of Daffodils, Winter Aconite, and of course the Crocuses.

But I decided to go with only one of these flowers since, in the wild they very rarely grow at the same place. Another thing that says "Spring in Sweden" are the chilly but often so sunny mornings. (remember I live in the south part!)

And I wanted to capture this feelings in this painting where my little fairy, (who has made a few appearences in my art now) is on a morning stroll waking up the Snowdrops.


Colors didn't come out exactly as I wanted them, and I messed up my lineart even thouh I was careful. I didn't intend to do much of a background..It just sorta happened XD

Well enjoy !
