Interest in Britain's cultural heritage, myths, legends and folk lore underwent a revival during this time. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanticism">The Romantic movement</a> was born as a reaction to the Industrial revolution, the new philosophies and theories presented during the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Age_of_Enlightenment">Age of Enlightenment</a>, and advances in science and technology.<br /><br />Works of literature, such as Edmund Spenser's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Faerie_Queene">The Faerie Queen</a>, and William Shakespeare's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tempest">The Tempest </a>and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Midsummer_Night">A Midsummer Night's Dream</a>, inspired artists like <a href="http://www.noumenal.com/marc/dadd/">Richard Dadd</a>, and <a href="http://www.bpib.com/illustrat/rackham.htm">Arthur Rackham</a>. J.M. Barrie's play <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Pan">Peter Pan</a> helped the popularity of fairies continue into the twentieth century and encouraged children to show that they believed in them by clapping their hands. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinker_Bell">Tinkerbell</a> still remains one of the world's best known fairies: with the 2003 film version of <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0316396/">Peter Pan</a> bringing her back to life with the cry ' I <strong>do </strong>believe in fairies... I <strong>do</strong>, I <strong>do</strong>!'<br /><br />In 1920 two British girls claimed that there really were fairies at the bottom of their garden, and had the photographs to prove it: the<a href="http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/hoax/photo_database/image/the_cottingley_fairies/"> Cottingley Fairies</a> sparked a controversy around the world that was to last for decades.<br /><br /><br />Today fairy art is as popular as ever, and they can be found in all shapes, sizes and styles. Here are just a few examples<br /><br />This is a card with my drawing in coloured pencil, perfect for any little (or big) girl!<br /><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; LINE-HEIGHT: 150%"><a href="http://www.zazzle.com/make_a_wish_greetings_card-137447625305597077?rf=238349566505505274"><img style="BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px" alt="Make a Wish greetings card card" src="http://rlv.zcache.com/make_a_wish_greetings_card-p1374476253055970777g1i_325.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.zazzle.com/make_a_wish_greetings_card-137447625305597077?rf=238349566505505274">Make a Wish greetings card</a> by <a href="http://www.zazzle.com/jessperry*">jessperry</a><br />Design a <a href="http://www.zazzle.com/custom/notecards?rf=238349566505505274">photo note card</a> at zazzle</div><br /><br />Take look at this cute t-shirt.

This was the first drawing that I did with coloured pencils (as an adult!) when I treated myself to a box of <a href="http://www.carandache.ch/m/index.lbl"><span style="color:#993399;">Caran d'Ache</span></a> Prismalo Aquarelle watercolour pencils in the early 90s. I loved all the bright colours so decided to do something in blue and orange complementary pairings. My drawing style is naturally quite rough and I wanted to keep that energetic feeling so didn't blend the colours too neatly. I finally completed my zodiac this year, about 18 years later!<br /><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; LINE-HEIGHT: 150%"><a href="http://www.zazzle.com/zodiac_cancer_greetings_card-137760084491451183?rf=238349566505505274"><img style="BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px" alt="Zodiac Cancer greetings card card" src="http://rlv.zcache.com/zodiac_cancer_greetings_card-p1377600844914511837gqe_325.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.zazzle.com/zodiac_cancer_greetings_card-137760084491451183?rf=238349566505505274"><span style="color:#993399;">Zodiac Cancer greetings card</span></a> by <a href="http://www.zazzle.com/jessperry*"><span style="color:#993399;">jessperry</span></a><span style="color:#993399;"><br /></span>View all other <a href="http://www.zazzle.com/cards?rf=238349566505505274"><span style="color:#993399;">greeting cards</span></a> on Zazzle</div><br />This is a great design in watercolour.
