Fantart-il posto dei Libri e dei Disegni

 I want to thank all of you, kind readers .... each of you for sharing, liking and appreciating my art and, more in general, all of fantasy art and Art lovers..... This is a gift for you, a special Christmas tree collecting a few of my past works, both digital and traditional. I really wish you and your families a merry Christmas and a happy New Year! Hugs Fabiola

Where have I gone? Some of you may ask such a question.... after many weeks of constant posting, I almost disappeared... and I am not so happy with it... but the cause wich made me "disappear" is a good one... in the last month I worked at 45 drawings.... Yes, 45!!!!!!! It seems as if everyone needing an illustration decided to have it before Christmas.... wich is a good thing for me, but didn't leave me any time to  work at my paintings, doing my painting exercises, creating new fairies and so on.... Anyway, this is the last cover I delivered.... phew!!!!!

This is the cover of the last book I illustrated: click on the image and you'll be able to visit the Amazon book page: the original illustration I drew is a brightly full colored one, but the author prefererred a sepia version...

An “orphan” drawing I used to draw illustrations for a wedding organizing website, providing them to its webmaster: unfortunately the collaboration between the webmaster and that website stopped, but someone forgot to tell me about that, so I continued to illustrate the piece they previously told me to work at. The illustration I drew  I like very much, I must say it probably is the most original I drew for them, but it is not intended to be part of that website anymore. Nevertheless, I want it to be displayed, so I post it here: it is all gold and silver!!! :-)

I think I can definitely say Christmas time is the most busy time of the year for an illustrator.... lots of people want to have their books and fables illustrated for their sons, daughters, niece..... I wish each month was so full with commissions!!!!! But I am also neglecting my watercolors, wich makes me a bit sad.... Brushes, wait for me, I'll soon be back!!!!!!! :-) This is an illustration I drew for a client....  a fairy, of course :-)

This is the last illustration I drew for a book cover...

This is the illustration I drew for an article about an “hippie” or “roaring twenties” inspired  marriage: it has been published on the  Villa Valente website, a location based near Rome for events, parties and marriages… My next illustration is ready, but I can’t publish it before it is published by Villa Valente… stay tuned, you’ll see it in a few days! And it will have a sexy feeling…

As I wrote in the past, about one year ago I decided to open a new blog  on wordpress. After one year, I can now say Wordpress is one of the best platforms out there, but Blogspot is still better. On Wordpress only a few readers stop on by, even if I often post updates and news about my art: here on blogspot I continue to have visit each single day, even if I don't post here anymore. One of the things I love about posting my art is getting in touch with people who appreciate it, that's why I have decided I will begin again posting regularly here, on Blogspot!!! Stay tuned then: this is my last work, an Aquarius I did for a contest:
