Creeley ~ a fairy for Junefae
♡ prints ♡
I was going through a less than stellar time a few months back, and this creature kept darting in and out of my mind, slinking and skulking and skittering through the shadows. I didn’t realize until I started painting her that she’s a guardian- there’s an Irish Gaelic word, Caomhnoir, that means guardian/steward/protector. So maybe I can call her that? And then there’s Aingeal Coimhdeachta, which literally means “the angel who walks beside you”. Angel bit aside, I like the ‘walks beside you’ concept, might go with that. The fae who walks beside me, lol. She likes warm summer nights, tooth dominoes (don’t ask), and collecting the bones of people who mess with those she protects. ☠️ #amelialeonardsart #art #artist #artwork #fantasyart #fantasyartist #fantasyillustration #junefae #junefae2018 #fae #fairy #faerie #creature #celtic #guardian #guardianspirit #painting #watercolor #watercolorart #watercolorartist #watercolorstudy #watercolorpainting #folklore #instaart #instaartist #magical (at Rockport, Massachusetts)
JuneFae #2 - Water Faerie Probably went a little overboard with this one... spent almost all day on it! XD; Or well not really... but anyways. XD; I was concerned at first she looked too much like a rain faerie with the droplets, but... I guess I’ll see what happens. It got to that stage though where I just kept brushing and brushing so I just decided I oughta submit this before it gets to be like midnight. XD; Should probably loosen up and do more quick ones though.. I mean, the sketch was quick but then I thought mmm this seems incomplete and welp here I am hours later. XD; Anyways... yay more faeries~~! XD;
3rd fae for Junefae 2018!
a bit late, but finally is here
Rain Spirit, for JuneFae (which apparently I am the only one doing...)
The Leanan Sidhe of the Aos Si (people of the barrows) is a vampiric fae that is drawn specifically to poets, artists, and writers. Upside: she offers love, inspiration, and passion. Downside: her love frequently results in madness and premature death. Even those who survive to be discarded are never the same- they are drained, broken, and consumed by a hopeless longing for her touch. Moral of the story: sometimes creative people make truly terrible decisions in pursuit of inspiration. Try to avoid this one, at least. I should draw Motif 1 more often! 😂 #amelialeonardsart #art #artist #artwork #fantasyart #fantasyartist #fantasyillustration #junefae #junefae2018 #pencil #pencilart #pencilsketch #pencildrawing #drawing #sketch #sketchbook #notmotif1 #instaart #instaartist #fae #fairy #faerie #fairyart #leanansidhe #sidhe #unseelie #celtic #folklore (at Rockport, Massachusetts)
