    I know fairies mostly translates to foragers, but hear me out: fairy knights? That way you get cute cottagecore fairy aesthetic AND ✨ladies with swords✨

    "Brain no work right now" is about the most relatable content there is. Hope you feel less blocked soon. Know that we're with you in spirit, also suffering pollen death.
    EDIT: It's fantastic you're taking a vacation, especially with the extra busyness on top of your usual workaholic mode. It's well deserved and I hope you get plenty of r&r!

    I love the last fairy sooo much, she just looks like she'll rope the other ones into a picnic near a river and get them to spill their guts about gossip from other fairies. I think her name would be Fayetta or Lila. Please get as much rest as you need before you try to challenge yourself with another one of these videos.

    Fun fact: According to Greek Mythology Apollo created hyacinths. Hyacinth/Hyacinthus was one of Apollo’s lovers, but Zephyrus, the god of the west wind, was also in love with Hyacinthus. One day Apollo and Hyacinthus were playing discus and out of jealousy Zephyrus blew the discus towards Hyacinthus’s head accidentally killing him. Then distraught and full of grief Apollo forbade Hades to claim Hyacinthus’s soul. He instead turned him into a flower, and out of Hyacinthus’s blood grew the first hyacinth. The hyacinth is also a symbol of peace, commitment and beauty, and also of power and pride.
    *TLDR: Apollo turned his dead gay lover Hyacinthus into a flower after a jealous wind god killed him.* ✨☀️🧝🏼‍♂️👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨🌬🥏🧝🏼‍♂️🪦😭🌸🏹✨

    As someone about to graduate in two weeks I absolutely feel that "brain empty" mode. I have like...3 or 4 assignments left for the entire semester and I just don't want to look at any of them because I'm exhausted and can't process the words anymore. I wish you luck with graduation! May it all go smoothly :)

    "It's a little muddy but..there's a lot of mud in the forest" is my new favorite motivational quote.
    LOVE the vibe of the Iris fairy, I think the name Meredith would fit them nicely. Also maybe Anabel for the daffodil fairy?
    I love seeing your artistic process and it's always refreshing to know I'm not the only one who thinks negatively about my art, even when it genuinely looks really nice :)

    The whole concept of this video takes me back. Way back. Specifically, it reminds me of me and my sister sitting on the floor as kids, reading the encyclopedia's section on flowers and discussing which ones fairies would use and for what purposes. I don't think either of us ever tried to draw any of them though...maybe someday.

    I really like the designs! This concept reminds me of the Flower Fairies series by Cicely Mary Barker. The designs in the books are more childlike and old (cause they were made in like the 1920s), but it's kind of the same idea.
    Hope you have a good vacation and get plenty of photosynthesis done!

    Right after your daffodil fairy, I was like...smacked in the face with inspiration that I thought was for a hydrangea fairy, but by the time it made it to my list it was like "No hon, you're from the south and like color." So now it's a Lantana fairy that will be rockin some nice steampunk looks with the 1880s lobster tail bustle and I'm actually really psyched to try drawing it. >A<
    This might just be me, but I felt like you chose some very...dignified??? Dignified flowers. And you might've had good luck with some slightly wilder choices. Stargazer lilies have really gorgeous patterns and coloring, for example. Or were you specifically looking for simpler, more dignified flowers? I'd love to hear why you picked these three. ovo
    (and just as I'm about to hit send I get struck with "lavender fairy = herbalist = a lavender fairy doctor" thankyou the wellspring of inspiration is deep as heck with this video)

    Not a name suggestion, but thought I’d throw a couple iPad art program options into the ring if procreate isn’t vibing for you! Art Studio Pro is pretty great, a mix between photoshop, procreate, and clip studio if that’s your thing, plus you can import abr brushes if you’ve got em 👀 there’s also infinite painter which is free for trial I believe, affinity designer (which is basically one-time-purchase photoshop for the iPad), and of course the clip studio app (this one only works if subscription payments don’t bother you though, lmao).
