Christmas 2004: Bauble
Gouache, 6 x 8.5 inches (15 x 22 cm), 2004.
'Bauble' - a sort of fairy 'reflecto-porn'!
Many years ago - and this is real folklore not just something I made up - many years ago people used to hang shiny glass balls in their houses to distract witches from causing harm. Well I rather suspect that it doesn't work for witches, but fairies, now - they're generally not very bright at all and would have thought that the trick works rather well with them.
'Bauble' - close-up of painting.
In this painting the fairies have got hold of a camera and are happily engaged in taking photographs of themselves in the bauble. This will occupy them for many happy hours, thus preventing them from causing mischief elsewhere...
