Naming a fairy is notoriously difficult, because they don't particularly like to be named. There are so many of them, and humans have always wanted to categorize them. In that way, we think we can have more control over them.

To believe in faeries is to step into an enchanted space where the rational mind meets the irrational heart, and all things become possible.

Faeries are seen through the heart, not through the eyes. Remember that faeries inhabit the interior of the earth and the interior of all things, so look, in the first place, in the interior of yourself.

I paint the spirit and soul of what I see.

To me, intolerance leads down a dreadful path that the world sometimes seems to be going to.

I had a job as an illustrator, and I wanted to change the direction of my work. I moved to the country, and immediately I started to paint fairies and trolls.

We almost need another word for fairy, that's the thing. Once people get to see what fairies' real power is, then they understand.
