Commission for Priya Kishna
She requested a somewhat Disney-like forest as habitat for the fairy tribe in her original story. :)

Sorry about the big watermark but this was a hell of a lot of work and I don't wanna take any chances. :no:
I don't think I've ever rendered a picture to this extent. O___o First time my tree bark actually looks like tree bark. xD

Also, the yellow fairy in the front is supposed to be hovering in mid air, not leaning on the tree, which it somehow looks like a little. They're only about 7cm excluding wings so she'd be way too big if she'd be touching the trunk. Thus please consider that she's very close to the viewer. ^^

All in all there are six fairies hidden, can you find them all? :dummy:

The waterfalls look like they just come out of the grass, which is odd. That aside though, it's a very nice illustration. Lovely atmosphere and particularly nice work on the flowers.
