Illustration Friday - "Packed"



Hi Everyone....

I took a break to do a quick illo for this week's prompt...

Nothing like fresh mermaids PACKED in salt water....

Have a wonderful weekend!

Hugs

Diana

  5. too funny... and they look so comfy in their sardine tin, must be because they just came back from the spa. That would explain their gorgeous hair and shiny scales.
    Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful weekend.

  22. heehee! They're so cute. I was thinking about doing sardines. I love that you still get your omega 3 with these two. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  23. NO!!!! I love sardines (even though they make me sick and I have to eat them served with cups of hot tea) PLEASE do not pack these mermaids.

    This is absolutely a very clever and cute take on the subject. I hope IF selects this as the best.

  28. It's funny, the first thing that popped in my head for this week's theme was sardines. Your mermaids are so beautiful and colorful, they really don't look 'packed'. Lovely!

    ReplyDelete
  29. HA! You made me giggle! :) They look much better than a pack of sardines would look in that container! What a cute idea...

    ReplyDelete
  30. very cute... I agree a little creepy eating them... but a really cool idea

    ReplyDelete
  31. seen a few of packed sardines, no mermaids yet...cute.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Perfect Diana! Your illustrations go well with food! Speaking of food, thank you for the birthday wishes and "virtual cupcakes"! I will have to keep your sentiment in mind and go to the bakery and pick our a crazy Halloween cupcake or two (or three). Thanks again! Great, cool work!- John
