Artist's Comments

Dryads are tree nymphs in Greek mythology. In Greek drys signifies 'oak,' from an Indo-European root *derew(o)- 'tree' or 'wood.' Thus dryads are specifically the nymphs of oak trees, though the term has come to be used for all tree nymphs in general.

Mostly painted and repainted work. But not 100% so I feel it's only fair to put it in misc.
I used this picture by *mjranum-stock
Thanks so much for the fantastic picture.

Thank you all so much for all your support. I hope you do enjoy :heart:

The background is really lovely; I particularly like the wings && the falling leaves. Wonderful job ^^ Great use of photomanipulation techniques on the photo. <3
