Since I finally caught up with the challenge, I felt that today I could just take it easy and spend a bit more time on one piece, coloring it properly. Again, this is a post-it sized drawing of...a mermaid. Notice that I have already two of them in this series....although I cannot say that mermaids are my superfavorite mythological creatures or that I particularly like the sea, they pop up in my works over and over again, at the point that I have a mermaid in the name of my only blog. I really can't tell you why. Maybe it's that I am a terrible swimmer and I wish I could zoom happily in the ocean unafraid and free to roam?
this is such an interesting angle to draw her, i love looking at it. the colors too are so appealing to me. plus her hair, love how you did her hair!
ReplyDeleteGlad you find the angle interesting. One of my problems is that I tend to draw people in the same frontal positions (because, as usual that's what I am comfortable with), while different points of view can make for more eye-catching and expressive images, I think. So, I decided to give it a try! ^^
DeleteOh, She is so beautiful. I love her eyes, hairs, waves, all....
ReplyDeleteIf it have had more time You could paint all paintings about Mairmaid. What a serie!!
Maybe it grows inside You a mairmaid. Soon she teatches You to swim very well.
I have hoped to learn how to swim well for a very long time and almost everybody I know has tried to teach me...it's just that I am terrified of water! I start breathing funny and I feel like my lungs are compressed...totally silly, I know...maybe what I need is really the spirit of a mermaid to get hold of me and cure me of my phobia!
DeleteBeautiful mermaid. I love the way she is looking up and the way you have painted her hair:)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Sandra...I should have given them a little bit more depth...I'll try to fix that later. ;)
DeleteShe is very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Ila
