Deep in the dark underground caves, if you are lucky, you may stumble upon the realm of the Crystal Fae! It's a dark cavernous world, but if you listen closely to the silence of the caves you may hear that tinkling ringing sound... It's not the rush of water as some would have you believe, it's the calling of the crystals, luring you deeper to entertain their fairy mistress... Her cavern, if you're lucky enough to find it is luminous... The glowing crystals cast rainbow shadows on the walls and ethereal butterflies flutter in a ghostly pale dance, and there, in the midst of it all - the Crystal Fairy, her body slowly turning into the rocks that she's guardian of...
My mind seems to wander sometimes when it comes to making fantasy pictures, and the stories grow and wrap themselves in the story that pours from the picture. It's one of my favourite times to work on things and it's really the most therapeutic medicine.
I was over-the-top inspired by this amazing gacha collection from CURELESS called "Precious Gem" - it's a new release at The Epiphany until May 20th - and I HAD to have it as soon as Kaorinette - the mastermind behind CURELESS - started showing it off... It just seemed to build itself into a story, as the best stories tend to do, with the addition of some crystals that I grabbed from CELESTE at Ostara's Altar - it's the last day of the event by the way today so don't miss out if you haven't been yet - her cave became a place of wonders...

For so many years now, life has felt like an emotional rollercoaster. I'm sure that I'm not the only person out there that feels this way, but in the past few years I've noticed my levels of anxiety and euphoria have moved further apart and at times it feels like I'm riding the ride I cannot get off. It's going to come as no surprise that being on lock down due to the virus isn't helping - it's causing so many people to suffer mentally - I feel a huge need to get out of the house and spend time outside. Normally I'm craving a day off at home, but right now I cannot stand the sight of the walls of my house... Thank goodness I have SL, and SL has so many beautiful places to let the wind through your hair!
It's the second time that I've been back to the The Getaway - Nutmeg's beautiful display space - it's so peaceful even when it's busy and the setting is one of my favourite recent exploration locations.
Once again I stopped to pick a few daisies, and as I was standing there admiring one in the wind, the breeze in my hair - a hair-do from Wasabi - the gorgeous little daisy made me smile.
For those who want to know, and you know we all do, the pose is Secret Poses - available now at Spring Flair - I can't get enough of pretty daisies!
