I’m a little sad that I couldn’t take part in Mermay this year. I had done a Mermaid inspired painting each year since 2021 and I had planned one this year but life got busy and I decided to skip it. So here’s a throwback to one my fave pieces from 2022.

A female mermaid with orange hair, streaked with black strands, with koi fish colours and foliage patterns on her tail, floating along colourful coral, seaweed and rocks and playing with koi fish.

I finished my Spiders! They’re up in my Kofi shop. I’ve given them names (a cookie to anyone who can guess where I got them from!). I decided they’re all female because I honestly don’t know whether the ref pics were male or female…so sorry to any spider enthusiasts!
