Artist's Comments

I have been trying to work out some mermaid images. I have had trouble getting fish skins or scales amd some good Ocean shots. I managed to get a few images from Virginia Beach area and a few from Costa mesa California that my sister shot or me. In this image the ocean is from Costa mesa and the Sky and Moon from a shot from here when I was testing a zoom lens. I then saw a beautiful pose while scanning stock images at . Her pose was perfect for the few Images I had worked out with the one fish skin I did get. I was also able to work in the shell bras and star fish which I collected from Okinawa while snorkling and the seaweed strap photographed at Virginia Beach. My thanks to for her beautiful poses and for sharing her work,which made this image possible.

Real beauty comes from within, a treasure for those that can see it.

I've been doing a lot of abstract painting lately. Extremely abstract. No brush, no paint, no canvas. I just think about it.

Now If I can go fishing and get some more good fish skins then maybe more mermaids

I'll take you some fresh water fish pictures this summer if you want. It'd make for some different types of mermaids that's for sure.

Thanks
But I have to skin the fish and shape the skin over a doll that my wifey found for me that has bendable legs. The skin or scales then take the shape of the female form and I dont have to lighten and darken much like the creases like between the legs and to try and get a natural round shape. As a NON Painter LOL have to form fit everything. Once I get the skin on the doll I then bend the legs and shoot different angles and poses. The finished scale Picture is then fitted to the model hopefully with a realistic looking body. Yes it is a lot of work or a PAIN at times but fun just takes a long time
