“The fairy was tired of her plain seaweed green hair. She longed to be like other seaweed fairies with lovely purple or rich amber, and then she got an idea.”
The image was inspired by people’s envy of hair that is different from what they were given. I wanted the fairy to think other seaweed colors were better, but the art viewer would enjoy the fairy’s green hair.
Laurel Latto created the drawing using colored pencils and ink on paper. It was made for SCBWI Artober Day 16 for the art prompt of “hair.”
