Gladise is the faerie I met while watching my kids swim last summer. Our gladiolas were in full bloom. I looked closely and there I found a tiny faerie, hiding inside the flower bud. She had bright red hair and green eyes, the color of the flower she hid within.
She looked at me curiously and seemed unafraid that children were nearby, completely amused by their own squeals of delight. I set her on my sketchbook and proceeded to draw her form as I saw her. Here you can see Gladise as I saw her for the first time. Over the summer, she and I became great friends. Tomorrow I will tell you of our next encounter.
