Pixie .... for Art and Soul Studio

Hi everyone, Cindy here to share with you my latest painting.... Pixie


I painted this cute little pixie while I was away, so I have a picture step by step for you today...

so grab a cuppa and sit back and enjoy...

I vegan by sketching out my pixie in my Express It Art Journal...

I then painted in the background… using fluid acrylics...

next I painted the hair using a light green for the main body of hair and a deeper shade for the underneath...

Next I filled in the skin tones

then I added shaded facial features

and painted her eyes and eyebrows

Next I added  extra hair details...

and finally I painted in her dress...
