Just a tidbit of lore that I found while waiting for the paint to dry... The lady slipper appears in the northern woods to mark the courage and strength of a small girl who lived there long ago - a girl who saved her people from a terrible disease by listening carefully to the murmuring snow, the grumbling ice, and the twinkling northern lights. #watercolor #colorpencil #danielsmith #botanicalart #bumblebee #slipperorchid #botanicalillustration #childrensbooks #childrensillustration #art #faeriesofinstagram #faerie #gettingthere
Working with the color purple I began to get curious as to what its lore was... here are a few fun tidbits that I found! Historically, purple has represented royalty, and in darker hues suggests magic and mystery... In Japan, violet was a popular color introduced into Japanese dress during the Heian Period (794–1185). The dye was made from the root of the alkanet plant (Anchusa officinalis), known as murasaki in Japanese. At about the same time, Japanese painters began to use a pigment made from the same plant. I would love to try the pigment made from the alkanet plant. #watercolor #danielsmith #colorpencil #fabercastell #botanicalillustration #botanicalart #slipperorchid #bumblebee #art #childrensbooks #childrensillustrations #faeries #thimbletarn #folklore #colorhistory
A good friend is someone who will take you on a mind-numbing hike just so you can't possibly think, and then go climb into the bramble for a photo! #sograteful #friends #hikingadventures
