A young mermaid with a wish to join the seabirds above the surface of her ocean.

Made for a competition at a club at Deviantart.

The conditions was to use stockart from one of five accounts, so there are made with stockart from Lisajen-stock.
The pictures used are here and here.

I've always had a love for art noveau. This picture has made me want to do more of this kind...

Beautiful! The body of the mermaid flying seems a little rigid, but the close up of her in the bottom is simply stunning - the colors are well chosen! - and the water and sky are very well done! This is a beautiful piece, and I wouldn't mind seeing more of this style in your gallery 12

I quite like this! How her hair seems part of the wave, the close up at the bottom is especially pretty. And such a cool concept, it reminds me of the saying; "A bird may love a fish, but where would they live?". Great stuff.
