@Gina-Capaldi Love how you have captured their expressions and illustrated their story - a wonderful juxtaposition of views!

Mermaids at the hairdresser - and trying out different rendering processes, as usual....

Mermaids are naturally musically gifted and it IS possible to play flute under water.

Throwing the towel in on this one and going to submit it. I will also work on getting all the images here into a slide show so you can see them all without scrolling. Hoping to get that up by this evening. Good Luck everyone!! Tons of great work here.

Okay here are my mermaids rockin it out. My daughter was actually just in the Little Mermaid Jr. and she was a mersister. It was fun to base all the different mermaids after her and the girls that were in the play. I like the new monthly contest idea. It is fun to see what everyone has come up with, amazing work here!

@corykerr great color scheme, and I agree, so much good work in this thread!

@holleywilliamson Adorable piece!

This thread has been so much fun to browse--the diversity of styles and of mermaids is a delight.

[Sliproot]

Loved looking through this thread, inspired me to finally draw a mermay today.

I did this quick study to test some brushes / techniques in Photoshop. Went for the cute look, but I like to think she would drag anyone under like any true mermaid.
