This is a Art Trade made with the talented . This sweet artist has been the first person interrested to do an AT with me. The topic was “The green fairy”. We always thing about absinthe, but I wanted to do something else.

I thought about dryad, protective forest nymphs in Greek mythology. So here’s the story: The green fairy teaches to her pupil the secrets of Nature and Mother Eart. She passes the torch to the next successor.
