The Three Muses Challenge - THE SEA

 
Mermaids must tire of draping themselves in seaweed and scales so why not some high fashion designs for them?
 
My mermaid has a face drawn by me and an outfit (complete withpeplum)  all cut from a fish tail by Irene Alexeeva.  The bubbles, shell (re-coloured) and raffia bow are also by Irene.  Background by Lorie Davison.

  11. Marie, I'm sure you are unaware of the talent you have. This little mermaid, along with all of your 'painted' ladies is to die for. The biggest standing ovation I can muster from my corner.
