@lmrush I have been enrolled in live classes--which have actually made me "level up" this piece is a direct result. Thank you so much for the compliment.
@Laurasketches That is awesome I took a live last year but have been busy with 3 moves over the last year, time to dive in again! Good Luck!
My submission is a book cover for a book I wouldn't mind writing! Thanks to everyone who helped me push this concept and illustration farther - I valued your help!
Excellent topic for the contest this month, so many wonderful (and very varied!) mermaids 
Here’s mine, inspired by the official promt for May 31: Fashionista
@Lisa-Middleton-Griffin Wow! I love this, so powerful 
Here's my entry for the Mermay contest! There so many awesome mermaids here, so great to scroll through and get inspired 
Good luck everyone!
Whenever anyone mentions mermaids I can't help but think of sailors recording 'mermaid' sightings and describing the creatures as much more masculine and whiskered than they anticipated :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes: So my mermay entry contains no mermaids. Just the things that most likely spawned the mermaid myth.
@Braden-Hallett Haha love it!
@Braden-Hallett Wonderful concept and execution.
@Amber-Lynn-Benton This turned out very nice!
@Braden-Hallett This is awesome! Love it!
@Laurasketches Great concept!
Here is my entry for the contest!
@Laurasketches I love the way you are using light, colors and gestures/expressions in this piece. It is so powerful! Congratulations!
Here is my submission :
"Nowadays mermaids implementing new ways of attracting men"
Hi, one more mermaid into the collection
@Laurasketches Thanks for the nudge in this direction - a pen is certainly much better than a trident for this concept. 
@Laurasketches This is a stunning illustration. Very well done!
I love this - it's not at all my style -but wow very nice!
