Drawing Fairies

I've been asked to teach a six-year-old how to draw Fairies. Having, as far as I recall, never having drawn a fairy before I had a practice.

Actually it was fun. Here's the initial attempts, I beginning to think I could get into this. The paper was first washed over in the pink and then I sprinkled salt and sugar in it to get a texture. The fairies were drawn with a tan-coloured Pitt artist's pen and then I added red and white paint to bring them out a bit.
