SciFi and Fantasy Art Mermaid on her White Horse by Shirley Ghozalli


	This is my second attempt drawing with oil paint (of three attempts, I can't get the other 2 scanned because I gave them away). I was inspired from a serial 'Nina' comic which title I have already forget. It was said that white horses belong to mermaids.

6 Aug 2005	Raye <flyingstar.gallery@gma...	Loading... In Irish mythology, there is a race of white horses the haunt lakes, so I don't think the idea of a mermaid riding a horse is necessarily a stretch. Though...how is she staying on? Wow, wish I could ride that easily.
25 Sep 2005	Anna Wib	Loading... I really like this picture. It's very mysterious and kind of creepy. The horses do look like ghost horses or something. Keep it up!
14 Aug 2006	HAILEY	Loading... I love how you draw horses! Waer did you lern to draw like that?
7 Oct 2006	Tessa	Loading... I love it, its absolutely beautiful!
28 Oct 2006	Anonymous	Loading... Not bad, I'm in love with mermaids and horses, especially white and black ones. Could be a little more detail in it though ;}
16 Oct 2007	Bianca Kaakschlief	Loading... Very beautiful! but I think you should use more colour, because the canvas is shining through the colour. Oil painting works with many coatings of coulor. With this method you could (for example) make the hair of the mermaid better: set some lights, shadows and several strands. Just a hint to get better. But the pic is really beautiful!
11 Apr 2008	Aimee	Loading... A mermaid riding a horse? What the heck? Cool painting though!
26 Apr 2008	Cassii	Loading... Excellent, That Is Really Good, I Like The Effect Of The Water And The Way The Horses Look Almost Ghoslty, The Water Is Brill, I Like It!
