Myrea Pettit.
Fascinated from her earliest memories of the world of fairies, of wondrous
stories of my childhood, she tended not to over read books but be enchanted
by the wonderful illustrations of Margaret Tarrant, Cicely Mary Barker,
Rene Cloke and Arthur Rackham.
She spent so many of our childhood hours when not doing our schoolwork,
and every weekend, drawing and painting or colouring.
Born in 1970, her interests centre around classical music, conservation
of the environment and wildlife.
She travels extensively throughout Europe in her quest to search for
the hideaways of the little people and their friends.
"My fairy drawings are my own inspiration, either created for poetry
or storybooks or to inspire the imagination of children and adults. Subjects
chosen have been selected to be used in magazines, on limited edition
plates and fine china, place-mats, wall paper and other decorative products."
M.P.
