Fantart- Il posto dei Libri e dei Disegni

Today I have added her hand and I have begun coloring her hair… For those interested, I also have a Facebook page where I publish my updates…. this is its link:   https://www.facebook.com/Fabiola-Fantasy-Art-251688064899016 Today I just have found a fine art printing shop and ordered my first sample case…. I think I may start selling prints after finishing this piece, and not only licensing my work through my zazzle,  fineartamerica shop  and cafepress shops… I’ll think about it….

This is the wip (work in progress) of the painting I am working at: I am trying with colored pencils this time... Subject is the female version of the renowned Green Man...

After taking a short holiday, eating some pandoro and Christmas cakes, and being at home looking after my daughter, I am ready to start a new year full of colors, paintings and illustrations! I had a very busy November and December, illustrating four children's books in only 40 days... but I did it without missing my delivery dates :-) I spent these few January weeks finishing my last watercolor (you'll see it in a few days, as soon as I take the photos): I am thinking to use it to do my first video tutorial about watercolor technique... Anyway it is finished now and I am open for commissions again: if you wish the book you wrote for your children to be illustrated, want a portrait of your dog, a custom tatto or a fantasy painting depicting your girlfriend, just contact me at fbonghi@yahoo.it Wishing everybody a happy new year This illustration is a custom coat of arms I did for a client....

 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

I'm coming back where I started from: about one year ago I decided to move to Wordpress, because I read it offered better services than Blogspot... But I must disagree: it's true, wordpress helps you to connect with new people, but, I must say, Blogspot allows you to customize your blog or website in a better way, at least for what I need! Being that, I decided to keep wordpress but to update this blog again with every post I add on wordpress itself... The new thing is that, both on this blog and on my wordpress website, you will find my cute "Artsy Stuff" , but, here on blogspot, you will be able to purchase it  directly using your paypal account, by clicking on the button you can see on the related page !!! The first Artsy Stuff I am adding is "I'll paint your portrait as a Fairy" ... have your digital portrait in just one week! Visit the page here I think this will be a good improvement and make more simple for my customers to pur...

Il mio ultimo sforzo: "Il Drago", acquerelli, e pennarelli copic per la pelle dell'elfa. Il dipinto è stato realizzato in circa venti giorni: come i miei lettori abituali sanno, non ho molto tempo libero da dedicare alla pittura. Alla pagina "My videos - The making of" di questo sito ho pubblicato il video con le fasi della realizzazione dell'opera. Per favore non scaricate le immagini dei miei lavori senza autorizzazione, e inserite un link al mio sito se utilizzate il mio video. Grazie This is my last effort: a new watercolor called "The Dragon". I used watercolors, and markers for the elf skin. It took me about twenty days to finish it: as my readers know, I don't have much spare time. As soon as I finished it, I thought to dedicate a page to the painting process: you can find it at the top of the page (it is " My videos - the making of" page). Please do not download my works without my permission, and give m...

She is one of a kind sculpture: a Punk Elf Princess completely handmade, she is removable from her tree-shaped pedestal. Realized in fimo, approx. cm 12 high, the pedestal diameter is 12 cm. She has beeen made with no moulds. She is on sale on EBay here E' un pezzo unico realizzato completamente a mano da me: Raven, una principessa Elfico-punk: è seduta su un piedistallo a forma di alberello, dal quale è rimuovibile. In Fimo, è alta circa 12 cm e il piedistallo è largo altrettanto. E' in vendita su EBay qui She wears a copper handmade corset and a small gown formed of little leaves: two copper bracelets embellish her arms. She has a star shaped beauty spot on her left cheek. She comes with an authenticity certificate signed by me. Indossa un corsetto in filo di rame e una piccola gonna di foglie di tessuto. Porta due braccialetti di rame ai polsi. E' accompagnata da un certificato di autenticità firmato da me, ed è stata fatta senza l'ausilio di stampi. ...

She is an elf, but she hasn't a name yet, so I decided not to show her completely until I find it... in the meanwhile, some shots... excuse me for the bad quality of the second, I was very tired when I took it... it is her pedestal (i.e. her seat) I will post as soon as I choose her name the complete photos! E' un'elfa, ma non ha ancora un nome, così ho deciso di non mostrarla completamente finchè non lo avrò trovato... nel frattempo, qualche scatto... scusatemi per la cattiva qualità del secondo, ero davvero stanca quando l'ho scattato... è il suo piedistallo (o meglio, sedile). Posterò le foto complete non appena sceglierò il suo nome! Her eyes... And the small tree wich is her seat...
