Faeries, Fairies, & What?

Journal Entry: Tue May 6, 2008, 5:16 PM


Do You Believe in Faeries?

Well, do you? Regardless, do you spell it "fairy" or "faery" or "faerie" or some other way? To anyone reading this: Please tell me what you think!! I really want to know.

Some good news... :floating: Finally! After my recent run of bad luck, I am relieved to annouce something happy for once... I won `oibyrd's avatar contest! (YAY) Check it out:

THANKS, SANDI!

Due to doctor bills, I'm still adding this link to my eBay auctions for anyone interested in anime DVDs, Xbox games, and other misc stuff like a nice cookbook or my Æon Flux DVD box set.


FEATURED ARTIST

Each time I update my journal I like to feature an artist that has used my stock in their art. This week's featured artist is...


*charmedy: is a digital artist from the United States. I love the artist's gallery for the way that so many of the images seem like scenes from a more pristine version of this world. It's the perfect gallery to visit when I need to relax and let my imagination run free. Check out the scroll box below for more examples of what I mean...

Yes, I do. I spell it "fairy" because that's just the one I'm more familiar with, but all spellings are fine with me.

Ooh, wonderful! This is a really cool one. I spell it "faerie" just because "fairy" seems to have been misappropriated so much.

"Fairy" is how I typically spell it, but when I'm feeling adventurous (lol) I go with "faery". I have a pretty good mix of both spellings in my gallery (although I think "fairy" is more prevalent), but in the keywords I type in as many spellings as I can think of :D

I spell it Faery. I'm a student of Anglo-Saxon, and the word 'fairy' derives from the Anglo-saxon 'Faery' - literally meaning 'of the Fae'. Through the years as the language became condensed and diluted, the words 'fairy' and 'fay' were born. Personally, I much prefer the original Anglo-Saxon.

Some Artful Words of Wisdom:

"A man paints with his brains and not with his hands."
- Michelangelo (1475-1564)

"A picture is something which requires as much knavery, trickery, and deceit as the perpetration of a perfect crime."
- Edgar Douglas (1834-1917)

"Poeple don't realize what they have when they own a painting by me. Each picture is a phial with my blood. That is what has gone into it."
- Pablo Picasso (1881-1973)
