Mermaid Art And...

I work in journals sometimes when I have nothing in mind.  I just smear paint around and play, and add some pics.  I had this two page spread with background watery color and some ships.  Some map tape I wanted to see how it would work on pages.  That is as far as it got.  So. when I found this sea creatures/mermaid prompt from one of my groups, I flipped through some pages and found the pre pepped page.  I really had not thought of making a mermaid but as you know, sometimes things just happen.  I just made her to fit between what was there.  Mergames...




Her hair is actually sparkley but you know scanners...


And playing with some hand carved stamps !

People have strong feelings about mermaid and they express those feelings in art. Mermaid art is found in almost every culture. And I like mermaid picture soo much. :)
