Making A Friend
This ORIGINAL winter art drawing was inspired by a snowfall in our neighborhood last year. "Making A Friend" features a young child building a snowman in the yard. Bundled up in warm winter clothes, the child is hard at work building a friendly snowman, complete with charcoal buttons, a carrot nose and a black top hat with ribbon and holly leaves.

Nixie Dreams - Fantasy Mermaid Girl
This original mermaid art drawing was inspired by the Germanic legend of "nixies", or shape shifting water spirits that can appear in human form. My "Nixie Dreams" portrays a mermaid, or nixie, that looks up through the water's surface at her reflection, which is that of a human girl.
This mermaid's skin is a fantastic color of pink, with purple fins on her feet, arms and legs that help her when swimming through the depths of the ocean. Her long flowing purple and pink hair is striking against the lime green and turquoise of the ocean's shallows. Two companion seahorses watch her intently.
Pencil, watercolor pencil and oil pastels were used to create this artwork. This original drawing is 8.5 x 11 inches (21.5 x 27.9 cm).

"The One That Got Away" Fantasy Mermaid
This original mermaid art drawing was inspired by a trip to Lake Jocassee, SC with family. Lake Jocassee was once a town, flooded in 1973 by the state of South Carolina to create a hydroelectric dam. Divers have found a hotel, as well as a graveyard, below the water's surface. It doesn't take much to imagine that mermaids might also lay beneath the still surface of this beautiful lake.
"The One That Got Away" features a young boy who has fallen asleep while fishing in his rowboat, far out on the lake. A little mermaid, curiosity getting the best of her, ventures closer to get a better look at the boy. She takes a moment to free the wiggling worm from his hook and feeds it to her companion fish.
This mermaid has long strawberry red hair and glistening copper scales, which contrast beautifully with the deep blue and turquoise of the clear lake water. In the depths of the lake, you can just see an old car which must have been left behind when the town was evacuated so long ago.
