"A Dark Undercurrent" -- line art in pen on paper, free hand colored digitally in Corel Painter on Intuos 3 tablet. For Enchanted Visions Project's existing theme of the same title.
This is my last piece of 2011, and my 20th piece for the Enchanted Visions Project. I'm slowly catching up -- I think I may have only 7 old themes left now.
A dark (evil?) mermaid~ After "Circe", I was going to jump right into "Dragon Lore", but when I sat at my desk with a blank sheet of paper, this one appeared. When a mermaid comes out of nowhere to 'pose' for you, you simply must go with the flow and paint her. I've been wanting to do this theme for a while, so it worked out wonderfully. And the next month's theme "Dragon Lore" isn't due until the middle of January, which leaves me plenty of time (or so this procrastinator thinks).
No problem your art is gorgeous. I paint fairies myself, although have not mannaged to download any of my work as yet. But I love your style and this mermaid is just so enchanting. Infact i could no doubt like your whole gallery. magical blessings Milly xxx
