This piece was comissioned by a woman whose husband is a beekeeper. She wanted a faery surround by bees and a unicorn is landscape with a bridge, although I had alot of trouble with the bridge, and never was able to get it <i>quite</i> right.

Acrylic on canvas, 24" X 36"

2004

So...Why is this called the beekeeper?

I'm sure that it is called the beekeeper because the fairy is the keeper of bee's, she keeps them safe. The Unicorn is a beautiful addition. I love the bridge, its an example of a persons own unique imagination. It's fantasy, not reality, fantasy is like creating another world. Amazing job.

There's something so enchanting about this piece, like i want to travel beyond the bend in the river, like the invitation i feel from the opposite direction to the one i take. Love how the water runs pure and white, magical.

Oh, SO pretty. I like the dark, lush greens on either side of the canvas and how they blend into the foreground.

Wow!
I wish I could paint like you!
What kind of paint do you use?

:-) Alisa Simonoff replies: "Well, this was one of my last paintings using acrylics. All my more recent paintings are done in either oil or watercolor, because I like to be able to work the paint for a longer period of time"
