Mermaid Madness: Sept. 22-28

[kygirl]

Let's go under the sea this week and create some mermaids.

For mine, I was totally inspired by Victoria O'Neill's mermaid paper dolls (http://www.artypantz.com/artforsale/paperdolls.html), so I designed it in two pieces. It's mounted on chipboard, cut out, and attached with a brad that allows the tail to swing back and forth. I used a magnet to attach it to my refrigerator.

You might want to do something else -- an ATC, a piece of art, a journaling piece. There's no format requirement this week. Just have fun swimming with the fishes.

Post your work in our all-new Artist's Studio gallery (http://www.digitalartquirks.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=578).

Thanks, Donna. This sent me to my subsidiary programs (Ulead and Corel Paint), which I tend to ignore. I'm not very good with the painting, so it's good to be forced to experiment with it. This was fun, and my mermaid is here (http://www.digitalartquirks.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=6908&cat=578)
