A Fairy's Secret Valley



Today a new drawing for you so you may meander down a secluded path in A Fairy's Secret Valley!

Yet because Secret Moon Art isn't exclusively for Fairy Art (or Faerie Art, if you prefer), I went wandering about on your behalf and discovered some lovely Fairy Art sites for ethereal perusal such as Fairy Art.net, Art by Sarah Pittman, and some free-to-use Fairy clip art which may be found at Karen Whimsy's site.

Related is the Sur La Lune Fairy Tale Blog, a treat for eyes and minds!

And of course, if you wish a journey to view the transcendental artwork of one of America's premiere Visionary Artists you simply can never go off-path with Mr. Gilbert Williams, an early inspiration of mine.

Now I feel a bit sheepish admitting it, but somewhere packed away I have a book of his paintings which was published quite a few moons ago - and when I locate it one day, you might be able to hear my woot! all the way from Georgia!

Oh where can it be? Perhaps the pink fairies purloined it...

Moonrise at the Crossroads? Well, Boo!


Yes, Moonrise at the Crossroads has been published here before and seems to show up in quite a few google searches. But since it's a favorite drawing of mine (even though I usually lean toward full color rather than black and white), I'm posting it now in honor of Autumn Equinox 2010 and the lovely Full Moon of last evening!

Plus, since Halloween is almost upon us I am reminded that this image turns up rather well when people google terms like 'spooky art', too. Boo!

Getting Ready for Salvador Dali


In a couple of weeks this pencil artist shall be Dallying with Dali at Atlanta's High Museum of Art!

A favorite 'showman' artist of surrealism from my childhood, Salvador Dali's work is on display in Atlanta, Georgia, some of which has never before been viewed by the public. The exhibition is titled, 'Dali: The Late Work' so please click for more details.

The image above is a detail from my drawing Ecology Woman, an effort which I am quite certain was inspired by my early interest in the surrealism of Salvador Dali, among others.
