pencil – Nicki MacRae

A pen and ink with watercolour illustration of a young white woman standing side to the viewer. She has ginger long hair and calm expression with eyes resting downward and gentle smile. She wears loose trousers and a knitted jumper in neutral colours, and a bright yellow ring sling baby carrier over one shoulder, with tail hanging down in a fluid and decorative fashion. A tiny baby with blonde hair is nestled into the folds of the carrier, right on her chest.

A vibrant, colour dense illustration in watercolour with pen and ink. A female figure with huge wings fills almost the whole space. The pale mint green wings have a feathery texture and elegant curved shapes, making the figure seem small. The figure has a heart shaped face, small features, white skin, rosy cheeks and bobbed hair insides of orange and yellow. she holds a large glowing orange and red heart against her chest with both arms, cradling it. her expression is warm and calm. The background is deep blue and starry.
