Old exhibition piece illustrating the saying Fairy Folks are in Old Oaks. Seems to fit this week's "Hollow" theme. Can you spot the hidden figure in the shadows? (I didn't know it was there until after I'd completed the artwork).
This is amazing! Arthur Rackham is one of my all time favourite illustrators so you can tell I love this too! I looked for the figure in the shadow...is it near the top? Maybe my eyesight isn't so good hehe! Your drawings are lovely, really lovely :)
Thanks everyone! This was the central piece for a solo exhibition sponsored by the WWF called "Denizens", on the theme of instilling a love of the natural world through fantasy. In all I had 50 pieces on show, most in a similar vein to this, few of which have been seen outside the exhibition. This piece has never been published, I don't show it so much, as it's quite an obvious homage to Rackham and a little different from my other work.
