Let me introduce you to “The Tea Fairies”
The first fairy I'd like to introduce you to is Azura.
Azura is a confident, powerful and strong fairy. I painted her with eco friendly paint on a tea bag which I then attached to a book page.
The fairies came to me, we needed each other. We are family just as many other humans are. Several years ago when I felt I lost my spirit and my joy they began to tap me on the shoulder. They communicated with me through my feelings, my knowing, my inner and second sight and my art. In 2013 I met a group of fairies. I learned about them, envisioned them and began to translate them through my art. I call this group of fairies “The Tea Fairies” I called them this because as soon as I saw them I knew they needed to be painted on teabags, in keeping with their charming and tiny nature.
I learned that The Tea Fairies are quirky, and have their own unique beauty. I learned that they love being fancifully adorned and they love themselves even with their quirks. They have a strong sense of self love. This is something they hope to teach humans. They radiate pure delight to those who need it.
Your tea fairies sound like beautiful friends to have in times of need. Happy PPF, hugs, Valerie
