I love this character, she is so cool looking and I am so glad that https://www.weasyl.com/~sparkyopteryx allowed me to do this for him as my part of the trade. This is part of the description I was given for her "... Like any melusine, she's a sea siren that can foretell death and fortune." The background is much more a smooth color but the paper got wavy because of being painted and the scanner picked it up and make s it look mottled.
He is doing me a cool bat person as his part of the trade!
This was a lot of fun and I may ask to be allowed to do more of her. "Pellusa's Vision", 9 x 12, Acrylic and Micron pen on grey paper. Prints available.

This is absolutely fantastic, seriously. Your free interpretation of her markings I find especially captivating, and I fully intend to incorporate all of those elements you added into her design, and you do so well with organic framing devices with flowing composition. I also must mention how much I love all of that blue. Thank you very much for this beautiful piece.
I've started coloring yours today, by the way. With everything else I'm working on I could probably still have it done by Sunday or Monday (and depending on how much I'll want to fiddle with it).
