Here's my mermaid who has been part of an illustration series of Zodiac Mermaids I made. She's the unofficial sign who represents the Ophiuchus :).

Omg this is my first mermaid for Mermay and it's for this contest! But it was an interesting idea to draw something new after being busy with school

I feel a bit insecure, there are so many pretty draws here...

I hope you like it!

There is an amazing amount of variety in this contest!! Love seeing everyone's entries and the unique works that are in this thread! This is my entry - old school pin up style tattoo I drew for my husband - His brother owns a tattoo shop in Portland and this will eventually be onbody soon!!

@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.
