Wisteria Morning

This tiny 4" x 6" painting was an experiment with painting on a new sort of board.

These girlfriend fairies are inspired by all the lovely ladies at Wisteria Lane on Delphi and the fun we all have comparing our makeup for the day and shooting the breeze over out morning coffee. Their wings are based on the Barred Orange Tip and Southern Dogface butterflies.

The image itself is very loosely based on the iconic cherubs at the bottom of The Sistine Madonna.

This image is available on Cafe Press.
