Maeve Sidheby ~dark-spider

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Fantasy

Sidhe is the name that the fairies receive in the Irish mythology. It is said that they are high beings as a current man, of reserved customs and very powerful. Her Queen, Maeve, is so beautiful that for the mortal ones it can be dangerous to look at her.
Some legends tell that these fairies are descendants from the ancient gods Tuatha of Dannan, and others assure that they are fallen angels, which were not bad enough to be sent to the hell.

This picture is my version of the Queen Maeve, with the forest around her.

This is a beautiful picture, the detail is great especially on the wings. Although according to my friend Sidhe don't have wings, though he might be wrong in that I will have to look it up, but this picture is amazing, and I am such a huge fan of Irish Mythology especially about the Sidhe (people of the mounds) the Tuatha De Dannan and the Tir Na n'Og.
