Again! Absolutely astounding! The curving lines are so graceful... and I am so jealous of the hands.. I've never been able to do them. Your work is fabulous.

I. Am. SPEECHLESS.

I like the webbing between their fingers...never thought of doing that to my mermaids....0_o

The hands are beautiful, the positions are beautiful. I'm curious as to why every single one of them just happens to have their hair in such a way as to cover their breasts? Is it because you are not comfortable with your female (artistcally) anatomy, or just that you wanted them all covered (G-rated). I was curious... But I absolutely ADORE mermaids so I applaude you and thank you for drawing them.

Your artwork is beautiful. I love the description you used also. 2

Ooooooo! Pretty! And I like the g-rated-ness of it. It's so natural that you wouldn't even think about it if so many artists here never bothered with it.

They look a little creepy...pretty, but creepy...

:-) Darien Gerke replies: "Yes, that was my whole intent. Glad it came across right 2"

Pure poetry. Did you make that up? Are the mermaids sisters?

They’re all so beautiful and the colors are so deep. I love all the fins, too.
