Today I did a card for Sassy Studio Designs and their sponsor this week is Tuesday Morning Sketches
http://tuesdaymorningsketches.blogspot.com. I love this mermaid by Sassy Studio Designs and thought I would try to do a card with her using some shells that I cut using old Sizzex dies. Well they didn't come out so well but I love how the coloring came out on the mermaid. I think what I love most about these images is the detail they have in their hair. It is so fun to try to get the waves and dimension of it. The second thing I have discovered is I like to color different types of skin colors and how to shade them. It presents a real challenge to me. While I was at the Copic Certification class Marianne Walker showed us how to blend colors so I did this on her tail and fin, going from green to a blue. I did it at her waist too.
What a very colorful mermaid. Love your interpretation of the sketch. Thanks for sharing with us at Tuesday Morning Sketches.
