    Thank you David, Happy you see the connection with the tree, That was not easy. I had to show also her agility and ability to leave the tree by will, how long the tree is alive.

Your depiction of the dryad is excellent. I like the sweet innocent look on the face. The colors are lovely. Beautiful work.

Haven't heard of these fellows in ages! Glad to see a lovely adaptation of one by you. I also love how it has a nearly traditional painted feel and look to it. Wonderful work.

Comment from Regina E.H-Ariel


Wonderful work, showing the entity totally merged with the oak - being it life power and strength of evolution - the green in green tones are so perfectly used that the deity is perfectly recognizable without being apart of the tree and that is important drawing metaphysical themes - even the leaves of the tree are totally integrated without being separate items - they fall with the flow - her face is enlightened also an attribute of deities and the invisible world - very beautiful

Wow how impressive Cleo! Truly a magical work of art with the true feel of magic! Lovely use of greens with beautiful details! Like the illusion of movement and shadows that show off the fairy so nicely! Best of luck in the contest!

    Thank you very much. I am happy you like this. I was not sure if the transmission of a Greek Dryad into a Central American rain forest would work out well.
