Oh, she is quite beautiful. I love the interwining mixture of warm and cool colors in it I may be a guy, but I love fairies, because I love fantasy things. I think this would look lovely to have as a little statue, the colors are just so eye-catchy.

  ^_^ Thank you!! Ech, it doesn't matter if you're a guy or girl. If you like something, you like it. I'm a really big fan of fairies myself. I've got them all over my room. Drawing, posters, statues... lol I live in a fantasy world. It's also known as my bedroom, but what does that matter? That's just what my mother calls it. ^_^

  Yeah, I know what ya mean. My room has ALOT of dragon stuff in it lol..hum lesse, 3 dragon posters, one being a blacklight,um,too many dragon statues to count >_> a Kitana with the hilt of a dragon and the scabbard as one as as well.Dragon books from authors like Anne McCaffrey. Then there is a ton of other fantasy statues I have like fairies. Then I also have 2 other kitanas a barbarian axe, and a 3 daggers lol.

  lol, creepy sense of room decor? lol, then they would to put me on that list as well, because from the sounds of it, our rooms would look almost the same >_< lol. And bah to the critics, your room should make up all your favorite things hehe. And Anne McCaffrey is an AWESOME dragon novelist. I love her harper hall trilogy of Dragon Song,Singer,and drums,Twas me first book series by her I read. Her pern world is just so vast >_< hard to believe anyone came up with that. Not to mention she is letting her son start to dabble in her world, for when she eventually leaves this plane of existence. But the two that he has done so far, are extremely well. What were they, Dragon's blood and something else that's new...

  I SO LOVE her books!! Oh, the harper hall trilogy was wonderful!! My room is FILLED with books. all of them are either mangs books that now have become 200+ or fantasy novels, and most of them are hers. Reading and learning is my all time favorite thing to do. Yet another reason why people think I'm weird. ^_^ I've never read any of her son's books. Though, that's someything on my list of things to do. >_< That list get's longer every hour, I swear.

I like the feeling of bliss this work contains. The wings are awesome, They fit her perfectly. I like the mix of colour and design too. That her dress looks very spring/summerish and her wings remind me of fall leaves is a wonderful contrast.

  I know what you mean! But it turned out beautifully that way, don't you think? I guess I'd go with winter, then. I love winter, even though winters here in SoCal (er, I mean Gondor!) are snow-less and 72 degrees! lol But I'm from Kentucky, and my heart lies in the big snow drifts (not literally ^^)

  I love snow! In the winter in New Jersey, we can get about 6 ft. of snow at once. ^_^ It's luvly!
  In March we went down to New Orleans, Louisiana. The train took 30 hours to get there. Well, once or twice it would stop in every state for people to get off and smoke. X_X Well, me and my friend got off in Alabama at one point and it was SO hot!! Hot for us is 85 deg. The entire time we were in New Orleans, me and my friends walked around in short-shorts and tanktops. The people who lived there were in winter coats. It was kinda funny. lol
