I have some friends in mind that I would like to create art for. It’s a little list in my head.
One of these dear friends is a true lover of nature and our kids had recently happened upon a dragonfly that just emerged from it’s nymph skin. The coolest thing to experience, by the way.
I had an idea in my mind of a girl with wings. I find something powerful in the ability to fly, whether it be literally or figuratively.
I was originally going to make a small painting but then I decided to add some paint splashes and stars around her.
Then I thought it could easily be framed a couple of ways…
In the end I decided to add splashes and stars trailing behind her to make it a full page 11×15 inch painting. I love all of the white space and am quite happy with the way it all turned out.
She is my dragonfly girl and when she flies she leaves traces of magic behind her. I like that.
Happy creating!

such a magical piece and so sweet too. so fun to take inspiration from life and express it anew! I agree, flying is pretty wonderful.
beautiful! You have such talent 🙂 I hope to get into some art when the fall comes but for now I daydream. Your friend will love it!
Thank you, Karen! I look forward to seeing you art in the fall. 🙂
She’s beautiful. I love the empty space too. It takes confidence to leave spaces empty.
Thank you, Amy. 🙂
Love the rug. The shawl will be beautiful. I have kind of put crochet on hold for the summer – though I have plans for several Christmas gifts already.
She is beautiful!
Thank you, Sue! 🙂
