SciFi and Fantasy Art: Lyonesse

Done a few years ago for an online contest, this is my concept of a... 'mer-garg.' My inspiration was my most favourite tropical fish--the lionfish. I'm very fond of this piece, because you can either read her as an aquatic gargoyle, OR a very exotic mermaid.

Hey, another really unique looking mermeid! Cool!

One of the most original mermaids I've seen around, and she looks like she'd survive very well underwater. And I thought it looked like an elongated lionfish. I used to have one. The thing I love most is how the spines on her arms blend into her fingers. And if she's a lionfish-mergoyl she'd have loads of poison, that's cool.

Wow... my third favorite fish ever, in female form! Yeah, I'd chase her to the depths. Beautifully done, the coloring is flawless. Kudos.

I like Lyonesse.......she's beautiful.
And why not a "Mer-Garg"....there was at least one "Naga-Garg", so why not? *hehehe*

So is she considered a freak amongst the mermaids? Either way she's beautiful.
