Fandom: original art
Characters/Pairings: whale mermaid
Content Notes: I was searching for bathing suit pics for references for this challenge and saw a pic of someone in a bikini resting on the edge of a sheet of ice and wearing a toque. Thus we have this whale mermaid. I had way too much fun making the cracks in the ice berg and had to stop myself. Kept the palette limited to get it desaturated. Watercolors (everything except the toque is ultramarine, burnt sienna, and phthalo blue), Pentalic Aquajournal.

Lovely! :D I adore the addition of the toque, and the imagery a mermaid in that kind of icy environment. Brr!

I image the mermaid making a land-born friend who lives nearby, and they diligently knitted it as a gift. <3

Now there's needs to be a whole story about that! Thanks!
