About the image:

This familliar little fairy will need no introduction to anyone in the UK - anyone else, well I think you'll get the idea about bank holiday weather from the green wellies, the soggy summer dress and the warming mug of tea!

One of a series of miniatures, entitled 'Drinking Girls'. For 'girls' read 'monsters, of course, with a twist of the unexpected. Each painting is only 4 and a half inches square, but very highly detailed. This print has the image printed the 4.5 inch size of the original painting.

Details about this print:

Print size is the same size as the original painting, about: 4.5 inches square (11.5 cm).
A signed, high quality print on archival matte paper, with pigment inks (very fade-resistant).
Note: the words 'copyright Nancy Farmer' do not appear on the actual print.

About my paintings:

My paintings are largely concerned with the re-working of themes of fairytale and fantasy, mixed with many modern-day references, always trying to give a little disturbing twist to my interpretations. The result is something that hovers somewhere between fantasy and satire, and is not quite either. I do not usually take my subjects too seriously, though I may occasionally seek to make a serious point by poking fun.

I have a weakness for depicting the totally ordinary and mundane - when it is quite out of context with the subject - a sort of inappropriate normality, hence the common appearances of glasses of wine and cups of tea amongst my pictures. I like the idea, for instance, of Devils on their coffee break, after a hard morning persecuting the Damned. This kind of subject also lends itself to the sort of undertones of fetish that often colour the characters in my paintings.
