Giselle , a fairy child!

I had began to forget how it feels to create a child.... a child in clay;Not that I don't normally create one,





but a faerie this time a much larger one.



It has been so long , I was first afraid but her face came to me in a dream.





Holding her in my hands brought back feelings that I knew once before..








Giselle gave me something back.... once lost...












I couldn't resist







Her gentle looks hides a scar from a time before














learning to live and learning to love







She has taken flight




and new steps.



My sweet daughter had pose for me and helped me create Giselle.*grin*














and I will aways love her!

Oh Tita, I have tears in my eyes....pain, mistrust, all of that has its purpose...to recreate NEW LIFE from the ashes...she is stunning Tita...her wings are transparent and have a glowing rainbow to them. I am tearing up because in order to give birth, there has to be pain. In order for life, there must be death. Faith, hope and love, but the greatest of these NEVER ENDS...oh she is so beautiful. BRAVO MY FRIEND.....Nita

Dear Pat, I am so happy to see a beautiful fairy from you!...and you said you were not good at wings..teehee..I disagree! Three beautiful ladies in one post! I went to Giselles auction, her pictures are just lovely. Her face reminds me of someone, but I can't put my finger on it...Exquiste work Pat, as always..you are an inspiration my friend. xoxox Christel

This is one of the prettiest fairies I've ever seen. I love her delicate wings and the way she is posed is wonderfully natural. Everything about this piece is perfection.

Absolutamente maravillosa!!!!!
Me encanta esa carita, la posicion en la que la has puesto, toda la ropa que lleva y sobre todo esas preciosas fotografias en las que parece una hada sacada de un cuento.
besitos ascension
