These mermen are competing to see who can get more sea stars. I think they're trying to impress some beautifull mermaid.

This is the biggest watercolour painting I've done. It took a long time, but I think it came out OK. Thanks to my friend Mauricio for the scan.

Grrr I managed to click away before submitting my comment... I’ll just say again that they all look like they’re really enjoying themselves! 2

It’s great to see them having fun instead of just posing and looking handsome. Not that they aren’t handsome ’cuz they are.

I don’t mean to be rude (it’s a good picture)-but all the mermen look the same...all perfect.
Also-CRUELTY TO SEA STARS. Sea stars have feelings too, I don’t think they like being picked up all the time.


Did you know? Sea Stars are actually not very nice creatures. They eat mussels and other sall animals and have a razor sharp beak for a mouth.
