Hi. I saw this painting in an art store so I assume its a pretty famous piece of art. In the background there was a rainforest setting.. mostly green. I remember the two fairies were greenish as well. If you're familiar with this painting or are an art buff and think you know.. can you please help me out. I think this would be a great b-day present for one of my friends.

I remember seeing other fairy paintings from this same artist. They are not cartoonish.. pretty realistic. Not sure what category this falls under.

In any case, I've searched the internet for hours and have had no luck with this. If you've seen this painting before or know the artist or title of the painting, I would greatly appreciate your help.

Sorry for being so vague.. and thanks in advance. (hopefully)
-Alvin

I have read the Writers Market books, Guide to Literary Agents and searched through Preditors and Editors and AgentQuery. However, my concern is the query letter. I need to polish it up, those books help, but they don't tell me how to write a fabulous query letter. Being that I have never published a book before, my writing credits on the letter come out dry. What can I do to polish my letter or where can I find an excellent sample? Or a website with samples or good advice?

"Why, of all places in Johannesburg, the Indian location should be chosen for dumping down all kaffirs of the town, passes my comprehension. Of course, under my suggestion, the Town Council must withdraw the Kaffirs from the Location. About this mixing of the Kaffirs with the Indians I must confess I feel most strongly. I think it is very unfair to the Indian population, and it is an undue tax on even the proverbial patience of my countrymen. "

"Ours is one continued struggle against degradation sought to be inflicted upon us by the European, who desire to degrade us to the level of the raw Kaffir, whose occupation is hunting and whose sole ambition is to collect a certain number of cattle to buy a wife with, and then pass his life in indolence and nakedness."

Behind the patio sliding doors
The city sounds Expire,
And in her cosy living room,
Nan sits alone. Retired.

The twin electric bar burns one,
Soft the blanket upon her lap,
Her cigarette ascendt to dust
Oblivious she naps.

Yet when her doorbell rings
she's always there
To listen, love and help with aged ear.


- - - - - -

The crematorium entrance hall
Bedecked with wreathes and cards,
The warming sun upon the hearse,
The gardens paved with flowers.

And slow the mourful journey home-
As minutes turn to hours.

Now her doorbell knowone hears
Reverberant on empty ears.
Silent Table, bed and chairs.
