I don't think it's gloomy at all! It's very sweet and charming :)

I love the fairy's tiny hand on his finger ♥

I couldn't have said it better myself! Though... I did leave a comment to try! Lol! *hugs* =^;^=

[fireflavored.livejournal.com]

Hee! I think you said it just right :)

*hugs back*

Thank you very much for the lovely comment! I'm glad you liked it even though the drawing didn't really turn out the way I wanted it to...!

Happy new year!

I agree with fireflavored. I think it's very sweet and endearing. It has, dare I say, a sense of pixy dust! Yeah, that was lame... Very nice! I love the fairy's wings. =^;^=

[in-praesenti.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I don't think it's lame... If with pixie dust you mean fairy dust (ha, it sounds like a street name of a drug :P), as I sorta kinda had Tinkerbell in mind when drawing it (thus her pose)!

Happy new year!

So CUTE! I picture the fairy grabbing his finger so she can bite it! (What?)
Love the details, especially the messy hair and rumply shirt.
The perfect sweet/sad Christmas moment.

[in-praesenti.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Since you said it, I can picture her doing that as well!

Happy new year!

This is so sweet, gloomy you say, I think it shows hope that such a small person *the fairy* is friends with Harry. Beautifully drawn :)

[in-praesenti.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

I really thought the prompt to be rather gloomy when I drew it, but seems that everyone thinks otherwise :D And of course, it's much better to see it that way.

Happy new year!

That's so sweet! Not gloomy at all :)

[in-praesenti.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!

Happy new year!

So lovely Aww :)

This reminds me of the pictures in the Mem Fox books, which is intended to be very high praise indeed. I love Harry's eyes and his hair and the fairy is absolutely precious.

[in-praesenti.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much for your lovely comment!

To be honest, I'd never heard of Mem Fox before (I take it that she's mostly famous in Australia?), so I had to look her up. After which I went, "Wow, really? (I'm not that good!)"

Your comment made me really happy. Again, thank you!

Happy new year!

I love his wide expressive eyes and the fairy's hand on his finger. The colors are marvelous-I just love watercolors. Very nicely done.

[in-praesenti.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! Watercolours are my favourite (well, to use, at least), I'm glad that you liked it!

Happy new year!

I like the details in the wings of the fairy, and that you allowed us to see Harry's face, but not hers. Thanks for sharing!

[in-praesenti.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! I don't know what it is, but I have this thing for drawing swirly decorations :D

Happy new year!

[veritas03.livejournal.com]

Very sweet actually. Love the fairy's wings!

[in-praesenti.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! I like those as well :D
