A Mermaid Painting

 

I have been wanting to work on this mermaid in the "Watercolor With Me, in the Ocean," by Dana Fox, ever since I got my hands on this book! I traced the line drawing and transferred it to my watercolor paper using a light box. I freehand drew the foliage in front of the mermaid.

I used Winsor and Newton Cotman watercolor tubes on Arches paper.
