Faery # 88 (illustrated by Nicole Ingram)

This Faery is one of the many faeries that is in attendance for the first performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream (written by William Shakespeare, as part of an agreement he has with Morpheus). The performance takes place on June 23, 1593 in Wilmington, England near The Long Man of Wilmington.

This Faery appears in Sandman # 19, on page 9, in panel 6.

This is a wonderful portrait from Nicole. I love his mischievous expression and the way that she used color to define the Faery’s muscles and body. I like the backgrounds and that he is sitting in a tree. He seems like he is right at home with nature.
