Artist's Comments

So I present to you one of our endemic pixies, Aerisemen Spp....as you probably know, Costa Rica is part of the tropics, hence full of luscious rain forests that possess a wondrous biodiversity of flora, fauna and faery folk. Just like other pixies, ours mimic flowers and plants in their environment(s), but are characterized by a strong preference for exuberant adornment and most are much more ceremonial than their continental counterparts. Concerned with the cycle of life, a South American pixie will carry symbols of fertility, adopt forms from the reproductive parts of plants and seem to be most active during the transition period from the dry season to the rainy season.

No sé que haría si me topara con una de estas hadas por accidente :? seguramente me la comería antes de ver que no es realmente una fruta :XD:
Los detalles que le añadiste estan excelente :D usar moras y frutilla como accesorio me pareció una brillante idea :nod: y las semillas como incensarios es muy místico :) me alegra ver más de tus imágenes, Wen, espero puedas compartir más ^_^
