I was listening to Eisley one day when I heard the line "I followed a rabbit through rows of mermaid entwined shrubbery" and I decided I wanted to make a mermaid drawing. Unfortunately, I've been fighting with this image FOREVER. I drew the mermaid for fun and now I can't decide what to do with her. So I just threw her on this background. :)
She was a lot of fun to draw. I picture her as a forearm tattoo on some dodgy old sailor or something. I hope you like it!!

**I thought this went without saying, but please do not use my work without my express permission. Thank you**

Oo, very pretty, I like how you've done the tail :D out of curiosity, how did you did all those circles to mesh together as one object to put the red outline around it?

Hey, I'm glad you like it. :)

The background is a few layers of blue gradients and a texture and whatnot, then there's a white piece laid over top with some circles cut out of it so you can see all the blue. The orange is just an outline of the circular shapes (8 point orange outline with a 5 point white over it). Hope that answered your question! :)

Dodgy?! How about some young hip sailor because that image is far from old school ;)
