This post is the result of a one-month mermaid challenge.
Threeleaves describes how a year earlier the artist had only managed to produce 20 pieces. This year, Threeleaves managed one mermaid for every 31 days. The ones you see below are some of my favourites.
I really like the imagination behind these illustrations. Mermaids adaptations of various sea creatures and inspirations from cartoon characters. Manta and jellyfish are my favourites.
The pieces appear to be a combination of watercolor paint and fine detail pen.
Legendary creatures are made even more special with cross-species mixtures.
Have fun choosing your favorites and thinking about which animal or other character you would have chosen.
