Starry Night Tail - Inspired by Vincent Van Gogh

[Fifi Tigg]

I was contacted by an art gallery that said they would love to have one of my tails on display for their opening! :D
So what would be better than a tail inspired by one of the biggest artists in the world! Vincent Van Gogh :swoon:

I have two side fins that will follow on from the wind lines at the top ;)

Wow! I can't wait to see the final product!

[OceanRose]

OMG Fifi that's so awesome!!

[Azurin Luna]

Oh cool! :D
A tail after a Dutch painter :D

[Luna Dreamtide]

That looks fantastic!

[Mermaid Jaffa]

Oh he was my fave painter when I was in art school!

Are you going to cut any part of the monofin? Or leave it natural?

[SeaGlass Siren]

Oh my goodness!!! I'm totally following this. Can't wait to see the final product!!

i have a thing with Gustav Klimt's art and mermaids (my grade 11 final piece was both combined and my art teacher wanted to keep it as an example for other students)

[PetLoverSpy]

Oh wow, this is going to be gorgeous!

[Fifi Tigg]

It's been left all natural no cuts ;)

[Rogue Siren]

Damn. I thought my client was going to have quite the original tail. ;)

Very cool, Fifi! Love the textures and I want that monofin! xD

Had a client request a Starry Night tail recently as well, which will be started in January. :)

[PearlieMae]

Geez, once Fifi rocks this tail, I'm going to have to do a Vermeer tail just to keep up!

:fallover:

[Rinoa Opaltide]

Fifi, it's beautiful! :thumbs-up: Starry night is one of my favorite paintings and this tail captures it so well! I love all the swirls and I can't stop staring:rollover:

[Mermaid Alea]

That is great that you get to be in an art gallery! Recently I was thinking that it would be fun to see mermaid tails in art galleries, because they are amazing pieces of art. I love that tail and the fluke shape is really cool! I love how many artists are inspired by the Starry Night painting.

[MermaidRaegan]

So pretty! And it suits your personal style perfectly. Can't wait to see the final product.

[Mermaid Jaffa]

One day, I'll have one of your tails Fifi! The Mirage fin is the perfect size for me and to have a beautiful tail with 3D scales on it, is pure bliss!

My current tail is printed spandex with rainbow scales and stripes.

[Luna Dreamtide]

Oh my that's stunning! What a gorgeous job you've done. I have to say I love your swirly tails.

[Fifi Tigg]

Taking the Starry Night tail for a swim tomorrow and will get some footage :D

[Theobromine]

This is so beautiful! I'm not normally a huge fan of more abstract tails but this one is just gorgeous. Starry Night is one of my favorite paintings ever and you nailed it!!

[Meemerdd]

Oh my, this is lovely. And I'm not usually a fan of the scale-less tails, but this one is a masterpiece.

[Mermaid Caspiana]

I. Love. This. Tail! :D

[Vela]

Wow beautiful tail!! I love this painting and to see it as a tail is really cool!! :)

Tail was stunning in the water, flowed beautifully, drainage worked perfectly and I'm over all very happy with my art piece :D

It's beautiful! I love your interpretation!

[MermaidRaegan]

The fluke tips are so flowy and organic looking! A couple of gorgeous tails. :)

[Fifi Tigg]

It's been a long break but I'm now making tails again but they are all this swirl design as I find they help with keeping the tails light, flexible and easy to travel with.
So I'm now offering 2 slots.

Adult tails start from $1,500 AUD
(shipping not included)


Each tail is unique and are totally handmade, no molds, may have little imperfections.

*DISCLAIMER
These tails are not toys, You must have at least a year's experience in swimming in a monofin so you are physically strong enough to handle the tail in and out of the water!
And NO being an experienced swimmer does not count unless you have been swimming in a monofin!
You MUST always have a swimming buddy at all times when swimming in a tail!!
When wearing your tail you enter the water at your own risk and I am in no way liable.
