Here is my latest work in progress.  The idea behind this one is that I rarely see African American women portrayed as fairies or in fantasy settings in art so I decided to create some of this type of art myself.  Here it is at the beginning stage which I think I posted a pic of before:

And this is what it looks like now:

 

As you can see I've added a couple of larger flowers beside her and added a bit more interest to the background and added some branches to the tree.  I'm intending to add some more flowers to her dress but I don't think they will be so close together all the way down. 

I hope this painting turns out ok. I'm a little nervous!!
