Description A mermaid, as if the name wasn't clue enough. I think it's really just an excuse for me to draw more potbellied goldfish though. I also seem to really dig light focal points, and underwater shots make it so easy to take advantage of that.

This took roughly eight hours with SAI. Phew.

It's a really really beautiful composition, very tranquil, you can tell they're under the sea, sharing a peaceful moment. The goldfish is also very cute!

There's something about the colours though which.. I don't know how to describe it exactly. It doesn't seem quite right? Maybe the green of her hair and the blue of her skin are a bit too similar. Perhaps it is due to the fact that her hair is really shiny - it's got some quite strong white highlights on it - but the shadows on her aren't very pronounced. Makes her look a little flat. Like the flower in her hair, its got no shadow whereas it should have at least a bit from the way the light hits it.

Aside from that, she's a very lovely mermaid
