This is a digital painting I did back in the day when I cared about that kind of stuff.

"Mermaidlicious!!!!!!"

date: November 9, 2009

I like the whole transitional thing about this piece, where as each model is travelling upwards, each one has more and more human features. My problem is that the bottom two don't seem to be completely put together with the same level of quality as the rest of the picture!

"Stunning..."

date: August 20, 2009

I'm trying not 2 rate all my reviews with 10's, but then i see something like this and i can't help it.
It's just beautiful, and the transformation from imaginary to reality is pretty well captured.
I'm not afraid to say it: you're gifted with talent and imagination. I can see it from your art and flashes.
Keep up the AWESOME work!

"It's a transition."

date: August 4, 2009

That's really sweet! I just noticed it. Looking at each one shows part of the Mermaid's transition into a woman. I love the lighting in this one and the underwater coloring.

Great use of lighting although the perspective could use more work. Keep working hard, I hope you artwork becomes as excellent as your flash animation.

Why did you stop caring!? I didn't even know you were that good!

Bah, you're usual stuff is more entertaining. You should do a mash-up sometime of this style with a sci-fi chick. Not forcing you though.
