Tag As FavoriteComment		Here we have a siren (or mermaidlike demon) who lives beneath the waves of the ocean. She may be pretty, but her looks belie the fact she kills and even eats people after luring them with her song. Done in watercolor. YAOGUAI!

Awsome pic, but I think you've confused a siren with kelpy?
I think sirens would sing to lure ships onto rocks, and keplies, shape changeing water demons who's favorite form was a bulrush - maned horse or a maiden of sorts, and would wait by a lake/pond/river/sea and when someone tried to ride them, they wold dive down to the bottom and eat them...I don't know, it doesn't matter.

uuuaaauuuu! Really unique Siren! lovely art, and for Gabriel L. Johnson, Mermaids in ancient Greece were sea nymph, birds with woman head, daughters of the sea god Aqueloo (I could be wrong...¬¬')See this pic of Waterhouse(prerafaelist artist):

Nice painting. Nvyao would be enough. Guai generally means evil male spirits.

This is very lovely. The shoulder’s rather broad for a woman, but there exists such a style, so it looks great either way. Love the lotuses by the way.

WOW. what a different siren. brill, but different.
the sirens im used to are literally water spirits, sorta like ghosts, woman that died at sea, on a boat, that sing to sailors who are unfaithful to their partners.
but then, im in South Africa so our myths might be different to yours.

and your description of a siren sound like kelpie. oh well its a beautiful pic1
