Hi Everyone...One of my favorite Legends is the Mermaid...I still think it would be amazing to be able to breathe under water....
I found some cool links to some urban mermaid legends....
Fiji Mermaid
Dead Mermaid Found After Tsunami

She's beautiful as is the world in which she swims...I really do love the "blanket stitch" that outlines your work...it is so original and so much your own !! I'll make time today to visit those links....have a great weekend !!
thanks Nancy....my stitch is my style...I seem to add it to everything...
Cheers,
Diana
love your mermaids and those links are cool but they are not as pretty as you portray them
Beautiful and sweet!
LOL! You and your mermaid drawing are certainly much more beautful than the photos of that stinky old mermaid-fish carcass you linked to!!
thanks Regina and thanks Kathleen...
oh please post that cake...and tell me more about that cake business...what fun!!!
Cheers,
Diana
Oh what a pretty mermaid. You are right, she goes perfect with my turtle!
all the divers I know hope that this legend is a true one and as long as they look like your work and not those scary photos in your link we will keep diving and searching for our mermaids
great post
Hi Diana, I went to see right away your blog what you have submitted for IF. I read your lovely blog everyday. This painting of the mermaid is gorgeous. I also love the pic of you in the shell. Your cupcakes are amazing and I loved your brides maid dress illustration and of course your yummy food of the day. Things here have been crazy getting ready for the move. I am so missing my paints and brushes. Cant wait to get to Canada and start my painting again & hitting some nice galleries to sell my work over in Canada. Have a great day, :) Lisa
That photo collage shows your wit AND talent! Love it!
Thanks Teri...I knew she would be perfect with your turtle...
Thanks Mark...I know you guys always dream about meeting a mermaid..lol
Thanks Lisa...will be interesting to see more of your work when you move back to Canada...
Thanks Eyecontact...
Appreciate all the great comments...
Cheers,
Diana
Your mermaid is lovely. Her fashion details show that she has great style. No sailors can ignore this enchanted creature.
*I really like the straight blue lines for the underwater scene. I did not expect it (always associate wavy lines with ocean). Thanks for the new out-of-the-box concept :).
*You are such a fun person -->love that Diana Mermaid! :D
i totally love the you-as-mermaid collage! every woman should be a mermaid at least once in her life! wonder when i'll be one.....?
You make a lovely mermaid! Do mermaids eat cupcakes?
What a fun blog too.
Hi Platitudinal...thanks for the wonderful comments...how sweet of you to pop by...
Hi Murphy Girl...you can be one anytime you wish...it is fun being a mermaid and a frequent request from clients...
Hi Roberta! well ofcourse mermaids eat cupcakes...and funny you would ask that because when I was illustrating her I was about to place a cupcake in her hands but swapped the idea with a shell instead....now I wish I went with it...hehehehehe
thanks for all the great comments...I appreciate it!!!
Cheers,
Diana

I think Canadian women make lovely mermaids! If you wish, you may serve my giant pears for one of your meals. Perhaps in a crepe?
Mermaids are indeed cool. Especially with purple shell brassiers! I have one just like it. :)

What a beautiful mermaid! The links were fun too.
You've got a very strong graphical style and you've captured a great, far-away look to your mermaid. Nice illustration!
Thanks too for your comments on my Jimi Hendrix portrait.

I love the collage illustration...how fun! Your mermaid is beautiful, and your strawberry cupcake looked quite yummy!
