Day Dreaming

Day Dreaming

When I think of Fantasy Art, the fairy folk from the water realm are always at the top of my list. This enchanting little mermaid daydreams of far away enchanted lands with castles, dragons, and all sorts of magical creatures. Soon one of Poseiden's dolphins will come to fetch her back to Atlantis and the mysteries of the deep.

Dragon Steps

Dragon Steps

This dragon appeared to me in a nightmare and from there he stepped into my reality. My children, when they were small would ask me what he would do if he were real and I would always tell them, "He would eat you up! That's what dragons do!" That would always bring a smile to their little faces. Pencil then colored digitally.

Garden Fairy

Garden Fairy

You are invited to the enchanted Flower Garden where I meet with many of my Faerie friends for a cup of herbal tea. We all meet at twilight and drink our tea from tiny acorn cups. The Sprites love butter and sugar sandwiches cut up into tiny sprite size morsels, while the grumpy Gremlins and mushroom munching Fern Elves prefer peanut butter and jelly on toast. Dragonfly Sprites hum when they're happy and soon the gentle sounds of laughter and humming fill the air as the Magic Moon Flowers open and tiny, shy Flower Faeries wake from their daytime slumbers. Fireflies light the fairy garden and fairy music fills the air! Won't you join us? Done in photoshop.

Grounded

Grounded

When fairies grow old they are known as Elder-Fey and while they can no longer fly they still possess great magic. They are often seen near Fairy Rings, ancient ruins, and mystical wells or fountains. They usualy avoid Magical Gatherings since the younger fairies, with all their wild notions and loud music get on their nerves. Elder-Fey wander the lands looking for a peaceful hiding place and when they find it they build their magic fairy homes. This was a doll I made then added to a digital background.

Ice Princess

Ice Princess

The Winter Fantasy begins when the Ice Princess, daughter of the Snow Queen and Old Man Winter, leaves her frozen castle and floats across the lands. Her frozen enchantments are whispers carried by the four winds. Winter is here at last, issues from her very finger tips! This piece was done digitally.

Lucence

Forget your fears of dark enchantment and come into a fairyland where all the magical creatures and fairy folk live in harmony. Whether you're mortal or Fairy, all are invited. But beware, in this lucent world you will meet Elves and Dragons, Unicorns and Griffins. You might have lunch with a bunch of Brownies or get lost in the Fairy Mists. Whatever you imagine, is your's. The door is open...all you have to do is step through. This painting is done in acrylic.

Mermaid Melody

Mermaid Melody

The ancient legends tell of the bewitching charms of a mermaid who's one look could mesmerize any mortal being. Many sailors gladly followed this sea siren and were given a glimpse of a magical underwater world where sea dragons and Selkies live below the raging storm- tossed sea. Even to this day, if you believe, and listen to the waves, and the wind, you might still hear the Sea People's song. This digital piece is of my oldest daughter Melody.

Welcome dear art friends. I was born in the USA where I still reside. I have been painting and sculpting for thirty years. My sculptures have been sold through Disneyland, DisneyWorld, Dillards, Dancing Dragon Magazine, And at many of the National Parks and major gift stores across the United States. While I loved sculpting and creating in clay, the business of mass production was another story. After three years in the wholesale business(sculpting, making molds, pouring the molds, painting the sculptures and Packing the sculptures, Some boxes weighing 75 LBs). I quit. You see I missed the creative side of me. I was lost in all the orders and bill collecting and shows, not to mention a sells rep that always took orders for more than I and the four people that worked for me could produce! Sounds like Rumplestiltsken! It was the hardest thing I'v ever done but I walked away and never looked back.... well maybe a couple times!


I returned to my first love. PAINTING! And I love what I do!!! My images, whether digital, watercolor or acrylics hopefully engage the viewer and invites them to explore mystical fantasy worlds where imagination and wonder still exist. I can't remember a time in my life when the magic of creating something beautiful didn't thrill me. I truly live in my paintings as I paint them. Finishing one is often bittersweet, like visiting with a dear friend and having to say goodbye. There is always tomorrow though! New paintings to paint and new dreams to explore. To see more of my work please join me, Barbara Brown at my website at www.barbarabrownart.com Thanks for stopping by and come again, I am always adding new pieces.

Hugs and best wishes to all the artists and art fans out there! Follow your dreams!!

Barbara
