The incomparable Havi Brooks wrote on her blog about her inner Writer Havi (she said “Writer Me” but you can see how that would be confusing), a Tinkerbell-sized fairy with a prim pencil skirt and her hair held up in a bun. She was also laughing hysterically, and the image of her, proper and delicate and spinning around while she giggled helplessly stuck with me. In fact, it brought up the idea of my own inner Artist Me, the svelte, together artist who actually paints more than once every week or so.

Inspired, I managed to eke some time out of a busy week to draw!

First, we have Writer Havi.

She’s in black & white (on a “fluent blue” background) because all photos I see of Havi are b&w.; Selma gets full color, but Havi’s always tastefully done in shades of grey.

Next, we have Artist Amy.

She got a little color, and a t-shirt I’ve decided I need to find or make on Cafepress. She also has a non-black version of my Jolly Roger pajama pants on, and something resembling my current hair color, so go her!

Let’s hope that Havi & I can both bring these fairies out to shine more often!
