my daughter and the sea

sea friends
I just finished this first piece, sea friends earlier today. I couldn't wait to scan it and show you. I wanted to try something different with the mermaid and I really like the way she came out. She is more of a siren this way, I suppose. Natalie said it reminded her of Ursula. I told her that she is a lot nicer though :)

I have a few other works in mind so I should get to it. Since I shared artwork inspired by the sea in my previous post, I'll share some photos of my daughter and the sea, my own little mermaid..
