Fairy Paintings by Ann Mari Sjögren
 Myrea
Pettit and David Riché recently visited Sweden to meet
the renowned fairy artist and painter Ann Mari Sjögren.
The visit was filmed and featured on Swedish television and
in the national press.
Ann Mari is a lady of 85, full of warmth and humour, crystal
clear in mind and with lots of stories to tell.
Ann Mari had a natural talent for drawing, quite from early
childhood. After school, she started a career as commercial
artist, then was employed by a publishing house for a short
time; that's how she came into the book business.
Most of her life she has been a freelance, working with
books as well as advertising.
"A Day in Fairy Land" was published in many languages
in the 1940's and possibly in quite large editions. Information
from some old newspaper clippings shows publishers talking
about "millions of copies" being printed in the
United States, but we understand they may have been more marketing
than facts. The royalties the artist received very little
of it all, just a payment once for the pictures.

The Sunflower Fairy was featured
along with Myrea Pettit in a recent UK ITV television show "Do
You Believe" introduced by Brian Capran and featured on
"This Morning" with Fern Britton and Philip Schofield.
