Mermaid 6 x 6 Oil on Gessobord $50 - Buy it here.
I chose to paint a mermaid because I love mysteries and fantasy. The glowing lights are meant to be in the water although it looks like it's a reflection of the night sky. I tried to make the mermaid look like she's glowing but I realized that wouldn't work unless the mermaid itself is brighter than the glow. I'll keep that in mind next time I try to make something glow. I also realized using the bright teal color is a better glowing color than the typical white. The white actual dulls the brightness. That's what I learned. Despite the mistakes, I love this one!
