She looks very beautiful. Love how you work with the shadings and the background. You have the feeling you are underwater. And also very good detail work.

:-) Erica Vermette replies: "Thanks!"

Woops! *first comment wiggle*

Nice detail, I love how her hair actually looks like it is in water! Most people forget to do that when they draw mermaids underwater...The background is really neat, but may I suggest accentuating the lines of light? They are BARELY visible, but always look neat underwater! ^_^ Nice job!

:-) Erica Vermette replies: "Thanks for the tip! Underwater scenes always give me trouble, so I really appreciate it."

Gotta love that tail! Excellent eyebrow-raising detail on the entire piece. And it's finally someone my age we're talking about here! Seriously, I feel so young around these older artists. Anyway, keep up the great work and have fun as a freshman!

I like hwo alot of the picture is just water, it gives it a great sense of size. Nice scales on the mermaid!

:-) Erica Vermette replies: "Thank you!"

Hmm... Oh well, I can't find anything wrong with this picture, soo... Here, have a cookie! *gives cookie* I like your shading a lot!

The sea around her is so empty! It makes her look lonely and a bit sad. But the shading is wodnerful, as is the texture! Very good.
