An original artwork of a song thrush, created using watercolour paints on 5x7" watercolour paper.

In Scottish folklore, the song thrush is a positive omen, representing joy, hope, and the arrival of spring. Known for its, loud, melodic song, it is often regarded as a herald of light, contrasting with the dark winter months.

A pencil drawing, tinted a greyish-green, of a plus-size, feminine-presenting fairy with cow’s hooves for feet and horns hidden inside her cloak’s hood, her hands lifted as if to lower the garment and a surly expression on her face. Small lights float above her head, and several standing stones frame the space behind her, though she stands before them protectively.

A pencil drawing, tinted a vibrant green, of a Cù Sìth – fairy dog – of Scottish folklore, posed to spring forward and about to start snarling. Lines curling up from their eyes indicate a glow and energy, the background is filled with large leaves and jagged lines around their head further indicate their aggressive, unhappy attitude.
