Her name is Iara, a mermaid from Brasil culture. I tried a new story for her.

Here is my Mermay entry...The Mermaid and the Fisherman. Such a fun thread. @Lisa-F fixed a spelling error, then to than.

SVS has some amazing talent among it's students! This contest is a great way to see it all in one place.

[Joslyn Schmitt]

I just want to take a moment to tell you all- YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING! This thread is filled with so many beautiful and inspiring mer-illustrations. Give yourselves a pat on your back.

[LayalIdriss]

Yey! My first post is a Merm!!

[Stephanie Hider]

So much fun looking at all the entries! I did not find out about #mermay until your newsletter so too late to join it but wanted to participate in this. She is for another project, isn't painted yet but I am afraid if I wait too long will be too late so adding her now in her rough sketch pre render stage. Hope you guys do more of these.

Lovely submissions! Here's mine- reworked an old piece.

I covered her in coral and other ocean plant life all so I didn't have to draw a shell bra.

Just saw this and I may be too late... I never know with the time difference, but this was one of my first Mermaids of the month and one of my favorites.
Pirate Spoils!

[Lisa F]

@Pamela-Fraley Not too late : )

[Joel Jensen]

I had some trouble logging in to the forum tonight (I initially didn't see the alternative method of using a Google login, which worked), so hopefully I can still be in the contest. Here is my entry, thanks!!

[Chip Valecek]

All the images are now on the slideshow - http://cshellmedia.com/clients/svs/ @Lisa-F if anyone sent any that are not posted here let me know and i will add them to the slide show.

[Lisa F]

@Chip-Valecek Thanks Chip!! Going thru everything now....

[Charlie Eve Ryan]

@Chip-Valecek Hey Chip, the slideshow looks great. I had a spelling error in my early image post yesterday and switched it out but it looks like you had snagged the first image before I corrected the spelling error from "then to than". Would it be a problem to update the slideshow with the corrected version below. The corrected word is "than" not "then". I think @Lisa-F and the team are using your slideshow to judge the images.

Thanks for putting this together, you did a great job!

[Lee White]

So! looks like you guys had some fun with this!!!

We have them all downloaded and will be announcing the winner TOMORROW. : )

Thanks to everyone who entered! We really love seeing you guys show us what you got!
