Actually, there's more than a single strand, but that's okay. The title sounds pretty. I like mermaids in case you haven't noticed. ^-^

That is such an awesome pose! I really love this picture =D

:-) Natalie Paquette replies: "Thank you. I draw lots of mermaids, but I like to try and think how exactly they'd move underwater, with that strange anatomy and all. "

Next time I see you and your pirate socks, I'll have to remember that. I say again, she's great, sweetie. Absolutely great. 2

How pretty! how gorgeous! i know i'm weird, but i love how you drew her arms and hands. her face is quite lovely too! and the pearls- that was a unique idea. greato jobo.

:-) Natalie Paquette replies: "I realized when I was drawing this that I should put coloring/markins elsewhere on my mermaids, not just on their tails, to help incorporate that fish feel or something - less like half human, half fish - more like a hybrid."

How is it I keep missing the coveted first comment on these new pieces? Curses! *shakes a furry fist* I told you the first time I saw this, I love it. She's all sinuous and eel-like and just so... supple. Supple is good. 2 Love the pearls - they flow fabulously.

:-) Natalie Paquette replies: "*pet*pet* Sometimes you get first comment. I like my eel-like mermaids. They're fun to draw. 2 And pearls rock my pirate socks."
