Gosh, I haven't posted here in a long time. There are many reasons why some of my pages fell behind on updates. The main one being I got very busy with my college classes. I hope to start keeping pages updated more often now...  and I'm finally working on a brand new website with help from my wonderful boyfriend, Nick. It may take a while with all his fancy coding but lots of cool new stuff to come soon I hope!

I've been keeping Facebook updated the most lately. I like it a lot because it's simple and it's a place where I can pretty much keep in touch with everyone I know and promote my work as well.  

You can fan me on facebook here: www.facebook.com/FaerieArtByKatherineBar...

I do have a personal facebook page as well but I prefer to only add friends, family, and fellow artists there. So if you add me and I deny your request please understand that I just can't add everyone! :)

I also run this page: www.facebook.com/FairyLinks

I post links there to anything fairy related I come across that I like or new pieces by artist friends. I encourage and would love if other people would post their own fairy related links to the wall there as well. So far no one else has! Don't be shy! lol

"Tortifly"

©2008 Katherine Barber




Watercolors, Faber Castell Artist Pens, White Acrylic
4"x6" Canson Montival Wet Technique Paper (1/2" border)

Based off our cat Zithy (a tortoiseshell tabby.. hence "tortifly"). She'll be up on ebay this sunday, provided I get around to it.

 

Haven't got much art done lately... but I'm working on a new faerie costume. I just finished the wings. They're made of cellophane on a wire frame. Kinda tattered... with fairy dust glitter. I love them. However I realized after they were done that the back brace isn't very practical. A simple sturdy U shape or something might have been better. But oh well... maybe next pair will turn out better. They were surprisingly simple to make. First cellphane kind I've ever made. They won't have shoulder straps...  they're meant to go down the back of a bodice/corset. Seems to work rather well... just the back brace design is wonky.

The peer pressure was too much. I've jumped off the cliff with all
the other lemmings and purchased World of Warcraft. Anyone here
play?
