    About Me: Hello and Blessings! My name is Esther and I am a fantasy artist. I am currently developing a career in this field and particularly enjoy painting faeries using watercolour. However, I do feel that I am merely dipping a toe in the waters of creativity and always strive to improve my artistic skills. I first began drawing at a young age and fairy tales were a source of inspiration during my childhood. Folklore and mythology also became of great interest to me and remain a strong influence in my work along with my love for nature. The faeries I paint are often nature spirits representing a particular flower or season. Art has remained a passion throughout my life and I have great admiration for artists of the past including The Pre-Raphaelites, Alphonse Mucha, and Arthur Rackham, as well as many great fantasy artists of today. I first began to sell my own work about a year ago when I developed my own website and have also found my 'Faeriealistaion' commissions (painting people as faeries) very popular. It is my dream to turn my art into a full-time career. Please visit my website for more of my artwork. www.estherremmingtonart.com

    Update for August

    Wednesday, August 20, 2008, 10:05 AM [General]

    Just a quick update for August......

    I am busy working on new art, commissions and projects!

    Also, I am currently selling some older faerie art prints at reduced prices on www.ebay.co.uk just search for 'Fairy Art Prints Esther Remmington' as there are several different ones. They are all matted prints in standard frame sizes backed with card and wrapped in cellophane.

    I am hoping to clear the old prints and have some new things available soon! My website www.estherremmingtonart.com is also being updated and will have prints available to purchase from there soon too.

    Midsummer Magic

    Friday, July 4, 2008, 04:23 PM [General]

    My partner and I recently attended the 3 Wishes Faery Festival in Cornwall on Midsummer Solstice and had an absolutely amazing time! It rained relentlessly for the first 2 days but the sun finally shone on the third day :)

    Despite the weather, there was a truly magical atmosphere and we had the pleasure of meeting some lovely new people! There were some fantastic bands playing and we couldn't resist dancing in the rain to Daughters of Gaia and Omnia :)

    It was wonderful to relax and play in the faerie realm for 3 days and become my faerie-self with wings and all! Can't wait for next year :)

    We took the opportunity of spending the following week staying in Cornwall and visiting wonderful places such as Tintagel Castle, the legendary birthplace of King Arthur, and Carnglaze Caverns. At Carnglaze there is a wonderful garden named the Enchanted Dell where you find limited edition bronze faeries hidden amongst the plants and trees!! It was beautiful! Other holiday highlights included seeing a wild seal at St.Ives harbour and watching the sun set behind the sea at Bedruthen Steps. Breathtaking :)

    Happy (slightly belated) Midsummer everyone :)
