“Silver in a Gown of Tulle”, April 2025, graphite. 

Fly with you! Here are some more sketches of my friend Silver, again inspired by art by TheCuriousSeed on FairyABC. I loved her six gowns and decided almost immediately to draw her in them. My interpretations of these huge bouffant gowns are inspired by 1950s portraits and glamour. I imagine that they are made of luxurious, sky blue spider silk made sparkly by silver flecks of pixie dust and trims made of white and blue down feathers. The shape of the tulle dress reminds me of an upturned daisy.
