My high school had an amazing 3D art program, and I learned metal work and riveting. This is a winged mermaid piece I made! Was super fun changing the color of the copper with heat, and I remember cutting out each piece was such a pain! It still hangs in my room.
I swim most mornings during the week, but Fridays are always my #mermaid day

Mami wata est un vodou de la mer, une déesse à la fois séduisante, protectrice et redoutable. Changeante comme la mer, donc.
J'en ai peint une aquarelle originale disponible dans la boutique en ligne, avec son certificat d'authenticité et son passe-partout.

Die kleine Meerjungfrau wollte doch so, so gerne die Welt sehen. Daher hat sie sich mit Hilfe meines Miniaturenpinsels in eine tragbare Nixe verwandelt.

Like... eat your heart out, Little Mermaid.
THIS is the literary fairy tale that needs to be THE mermaid love story from now on.
Make it so.
Finished this up on my livestream yesterday. I think I had computer problems that were causing MakerTube to freak out a bit… I re-uploaded the recording, so the creation of this piece is all there now.

Experimented with some shiny mermaid tail designs done totally freehand!
A fisherman was fishing, sticking his gum on the fishing rod. Suddenly Something strange happened and he turned into...
She got to pick the hair colour! I made the hair with instructions from a book by Khuc Cay. There were a few mistakes along the way, such as using a different weight of yarn for the tail and scales, which meant that the finished doll didn't come out quite right. However this is my first human amigurumi and maybe only the second in total, so I would say the end result isn't too bad! Niece seemed to like it and that's what matters the most.
My little mermaid having her spring bath in the virtual wall of the Bologna Children Book fair!
I suffer from a gigantic imposter syndrome about children illustrations, so it took me a lot of determination to finally decide to submit it to such a high-profile event.
And it feels so good to see it there!

My OCs, Coralie and Pete. (2022)
They initially were my characters from The Sims 3, but I decided to keep them and give them a proper story.
Coralie is a daughter of a genie and her only dream was to become a mermaid, but she can't grant herself a wish and her mother refuses to do it, so she was just sad and tailless until Pete decided to buy her a functional mermaid costume and make her childhood dream come true... (and he didn't want to waste his wish on turning her into a fish, let's be real)
Mirage is the second of the two characters I'm playing in a one-on-one Pathfinder 2e campaign my partner and I were planning. Mirage is a dragon-blooded merfolk ranger, and chitters is their "faithful" mount.
Mirage doesn't really fit the typical ranger archetype, they were a prince (though very far from the throne) cast out over a disagreement with their mother. The Queen disowned them, exiled them from the kingdom and only allowed them to take their mount Chitters before chasing them out of their kingdom. Like many nobility, mirage enjoyed hunting for sport, and was quite good at it, but they quickly learned that the hunting trips they went on, surrounded by royal attendants, are very different from living out in the wilderness and having to hunt enough to feed both you, and a very grumpy wyvern that was not particularly keen to be taken from his life of luxury.

My OC Niidari (2022)
She's a mermaid hermit and she has a pet fire shrimp!
She salvaged this instrument from a shipwreck and decided to try creating some underwater music.
This piece was inspired by a track I found on youtube

Zennor, Cornwall
Any visit to West Cornwall would not be complete without saying hello to the C15th Mermaid of Zennor. Although she sits in isolation in a sea of mediocre Victorian restoration, she is beautiful, inspiring, and mysterious. She holds a mirror and a comb, seen as symbols of vanity.
