acrylic anime art artist butterfly disney fairies fairy gesso gothic jasminebecketgriffith manga painting strangeling tutorial

My name is Jasmine Becket-Griffith, and I'm an artist.

I've been a professional painter working in acrylic paints since the 1990s.  You may know my artwork from my lines of merchandising, my projects with the Walt Disney Company, collections through the Bradford Exchange, illustrations from books and magazines, and especially from my website Strangeling.com .   Most of my artwork is in the fantasy, fairy, pop surreal, gothic and new contemporary genres.

A lot of fans, collectors, friends and aspiring artists routinely ask me about my painting process, how I work, what my methods are, etc.  Those who come to my live events and shows often get the opportunity to watch me paint in person, but for those of you who have not - I have decided to use Wattpad as a platform to show how I paint step-by-step!

This first tutorial will feature my work on a painting from my Butterfly Fairies series (a commissioned illustration for the Dynamics Inc. Visa Card company) - a piece called "European Peacock".  I will show every step along the way - from priming the panel to finishing touches.  Please follow my story here at Wattpad to receive each new chapter.  It will be serialized, with updates and photos appearing on a regular basis. 

Thank you so much for joining me while I paint "European Peacock"!

PLEASE NOTE:  Each installment has an accompanying photo!   If you are using the desktop/PC/computer version of Wattpad, the photo will be on the "Media" section to the right of the story when you scroll down.   To see the BIGGER version of the photo simply right-click your mouse on the photo and selecting the "Open in new window/tab" option.  If you are using the Mobile App version of Wattpad, you can see the photo by first tapping the Cover image at the top of the story, and scrolling / swiping through to see the photo itself.   Wattpad isn't a very visual setup, but the each new photo for each new update will show the next step in the tutorial (my paintbrush, mixing paints etc.)All Rights Reserved

Beauty's Tale by Summer Cheng by SummerCheng37

If you are reading this on any other platform other than Wattpad (or other platforms you're on) you are very likely to be at risk of a malware attack. If you wish to read this story in its original, safe, form, please just read it here on Wattpad as that where I originally published it as my own writing. -Summer Cheng@SummerCheng37 Lucy sighed. She was called beauty by all her closest friends. It was because she said to have the resemblance of the book and movie character, Belle. She tried to point out Belle had brown hair while hers was clearly blonde. It did no good. "Marry me, oh, fair maiden who has thus captured my heart." He said as he bent down on one knee. Lucy rolled her eyes in annoyance at once. It was the fifth time he proposed this week. Not counting the time last week or all the dozen times before that he had asked her. Lucy is nineteen in this story, but will soon be twenty, and Natsu is in his early twenties. Other characters are way older. Find out more in...Beauty's Tale by Summer Cheng. All characters belong to Hiro Mashima. The plot is my original one with some plot twists around every bend. So, hold on tight to your seats. There are few mature themes in this story so read at your own risk. Rated Mature for abuse, violence, and possible sexual content (this part has not decided on rather I will include this in the story yet or not). Cover designed in Canva app.

The Alchemist's Starling by ilovemanga2000

CURRENTLY EDITING "You belong to me - completely. I can do whatever I want to you, and no one can tell me otherwise. You're mine, Chisa Hatori; my little Starling..." I start sobbing, shaking my head frantically, rejecting the terrible truth. I thrash in his arms, trying to get away. Joseph laughs at my efforts, only tightening his grip until I can't move. The fingers of his right hand find my chin, forcing me to turn my head to the right. My blurry sight is greeted by his cool grey eyes, my stomach churns. He presses his forehead against mine - the mere physical contact has me shaking. "Do you know why the fae call you, The Alchemist's Starling?" I can't answer him... I'm lost in my own emotions. "The fae can sense you," he continues, "just as they can sense Alchemists. They saw your unique, purple locks fluttering in the wind when we went outside together - like the wings of a Starling. Of course, their kind adore you, and loathe us Alchemists. The fact that they cannot have you, makes them sad. Of course, because they saw you with me - they recognised that you were mine." Someone help me... Save me from him... ***** Chisa Hatori has had a hard life. Her father left, she watched her mother die, she was torn away from her sister and placed in foster care. Chisa is gifted; she has the Sight... and she is a Sleigh Beggy. However, she views her blessing as a curse, seeing terrifying monsters wherever she goes. Chisa has forgotten what it feels like to be loved, she doesn't want to live... That's when a certain Alchemist appears in her life... ***** *Sequel: 'The Starling's Secret' is now in progress 😊

Atlantis Academy: The First Element by AutumnKalquist

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

Yet he missed one tiny and naive unicorn that hid herself in the forests deep. Her name was [Y/n]. It was not long until she found out about her fellow unicorn's capturer.

BLACK SWAN {Liskook} by SereneLK

"Mother, is it true that all the missing girls have been turned into swans?" little Lisa asked, her heart racing as her mother brushed her hair. "Indeed it is," her mother replied, a hint of melancholy in her voice. A chill ran down Lisa's spine as she thought about her soft bed, blanketed in the feathers of swans an unsettling warmth enveloping her. "Are they cursed like me?" she asked, her tiny hands fidgeting. "No, they are paying the price of your curse," her mother whispered ominously. Years passed, and Lisa often found herself haunted by those memories. The moonlight danced across the surface of the lake where she spent her mornings as a black swan, a creature caught between two worlds. Suddenly, the rustling of leaves snapped her back to reality. She lifted her gaze to see a figure approaching man, tall and striking. It was Jungkook, the dashing second son of the King and Queen. Was he here for a hunt, or had he come out of curiosity, drawn by the tales whispered among the townsfolk? "Are you perhaps the black swan?" he asked, "If you are, will you help me if I break a curse?" he said. The excitement and uncertainty bubbled within Lisa, sending her heart racing as she prepared to face whatever destiny awaited her. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- There is no 18+ content, but I did state the rating is mature due to some topics or languages that according to Wattpad are sensitive.

Expanded Horizons: Beyond the Blue by ThetaObelusGamma

The world consists of far more than a few people, and far more than just what you see of them now. All characters have a past, a story, some piece of themselves hidden by time that makes clear who they are today. These hidden aspects can be revealed by more than just their stories, too; sometimes, what happens off-screen is even more important than what's on display. Follow me through the world our heroes and villains inhabit and see just how far we can go together! -This is all backstory and world-building for the Freelands of Into That Wild Blue Yonder (https://www.wattpad.com/story/214070883-into-that-wild-blue-yonder). Just around 50K words. -I also wrote up a brief encyclopedia with general world info here (https://www.wattpad.com/story/216689041-a-brief-encyclopedia-of-the-reimagined-world).
