Hi everyone,
While I'm a complete novice when it comes to mermaiding, I'm certainly no stranger to mermaid art. Ever since I was a kid I was captivated by mythical, fantasy and alien creatures. About a few years back I did a few mermaid pics, and then I began to realize that merfolk were more fun to depict than most creatures and that there are thousands of different ways merpeople can look.
Now, a lot of my pieces are photo manipulations but based upon my own photos. For some pictures I have utilized a 3D program called Poser 3 and its human and animal models. Some are hand drawings and paintings that I have improved digitally, while others I have left without enhancements. Some images represent so-called 'traditional' merfolk while others kinda fall into the 'alternative' category.
Now, there is one thing I would like people to take into consideration: Please do not repost these images elsewhere (outside this thread). If you would like to do so, then please send me a request via the messaging system. (It's OK to duplicate my images within this thread if you use "reply with quote".)
But if you have any thoughts, questions, comments about my art then please don't hesitate to post them here. I would love to hear from my fellow mer enthusiasts. :)
Without further ado, here is my first art post of the thread:
"The Embrace" (aka "Visiting Grandma"):
