"Scented Fairy" - Original Watercolor

Worley Studios

I came across this angelic fairy in my mother's garden, flitting from flower to flower.

Unlike some of the faeries I've seen, this one wore a white, flowing dress and appeared to be completely unaware of my presence; seemingly distracted with the scents of each and every flower.

I crouched, hidden behind a Rhododendron bush with camera in hand, mesmerized by her beauty.

"What exactly is she doing," I wondered, for she would go from one flower to another and then back again as if she was comparing them. Then I noticed her shake her head and then move on to a beautiful purple one.

Cautiously, I lifted my camera and snapped a picture. There was a brief moment where I had feared that the sound of the shutter had startled her. Then I caught a glimpse of a smile and she deftly snatched a bit of pollen and rubbed it in her hair.

Our eyes met. For a moment, I felt an overwhelming allure...
