"NO TEXT" paint dreamy hazy breezy wet on wet watercolor, using minimal paints and maximum loose water effects. “Thumbelina” begins with a woman who wishes to have a child but cannot, so she consults a fairy, who tells her to plant a special grain of barley. The barley produces a flower with red and gold leaves, and as soon as the woman kisses the flower, it opens. Sitting on the stamens is “a very delicate and graceful little maiden” (45). The woman names her Thumbelina for her tiny size and makes her a bed from a walnut shell. One night, an ugly toad mother sneaks into the house and spies Thumbelina. Wanting a wife for her son, the toad takes Thumbelina away in her walnut bed. She places the maiden on a water lily in a stream and then prepares for the wedding. When Thumbelina wakes, the mother comes and announces that the girl will marry her ugly son, prompting Thumbelina to weep bitterly.. The atmosphere is calm and melancholic. No text
