Red Winter Fairy

I started this drawing November 2008. It's been a rather time consuming drawing but I feel happy with it in the end. I really wanted to create a darker mood, when it's just about to get dark at night and you get that colder feeling (aside form the fact it's suppose to be early winter). There's something a bit searching about her look which I like, it suits the nature/fairy theme I think. I have very much enjoyed doing fairies lately, it allows much creativity and I missed doing all the butterfly wings I used to.
These days I try to find my way back to the things I loved doing.
Made with Caran D'Ache colour pencils, Faber Castell colour pencils and soft pastels.
Thanks to
for being the pretty model for my fairy.

The colours are so soft and the character really makes the winter weather seem brighter! 
is this compleatly traditional? Meaning colored pencils or markers and no photoshop or corel painter. Even if its not this is still amazing!
