Inked Mecha Mermaid

Here is a quick scan of my inked mecha mermaid. It took me over twenty hours, from drawing the original idea on paper to adding all the details with ink. I still have to figure out what colors I will use for this piece. I am also painting a few new butterfly winged faerie aceos this week. I will show some previews soon. Going to take a break now, to relax my inking hand.
Enjoy the art!
Don't miss out my new art at: my etsy!

Have a great weekend, everyone! Sending you all many blessings and have a great weekend!

Mecha mermaid WIP


Hi everyone! Here is a sneak preview of my newest painting, a challenge from the sea gods mermaid group I belong to on Ebay. This month's challenge was to paint a mermaid in a mecha or steam punk style.
 Pencils took me four hours to complete, and the inking took ten hours, with a koh-I-noor pen. That is one of my favorite pens to use for inking my art.


Yes, the scales on her tail were painted one by one; And I am not done inking it yet! I have five more days to go to finish painting her, I hope I can finish it in time to be listed! Find me on Ebay as: sexyartgirl. Enjoy the preview! I just had yummy spicy yakisoba noodles and iced milk coffee. It puts me in a hyper mood to create art for over ten hours nonstop.
Don't miss out my new goodies at: my zazzle!
See my new mermaid paintings!
Off to the drawing board I go.
Have a great day! Many blessings! :)

Jade green Mermaid

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share with you a sneak preview of my newest work in progress. A pretty mermaid with a jade green gorgeous tail. Sometimes it takes me a while to figure out what colors to use when painting mermaids. After I finish inking the painting, I stare at it for a while until inspiration and ideas come to me for color choices. Does that happen to you too when painting? Sometimes my mood helps me choose the colors for a piece. This painting is done with waterproof inks and professional grade watercolors on bristol board. I had so much fun painting her pretty tail!


 Enjoy the art! And have a blessed day!
