In The Green Waters

Recently I spoke to the Southern Piedmont Artists Guild in Monroe and in the fantasy demo that followed it was requested I combine a jackalope and a mermaid. I had no memory or reference for a jackalope so I had to wing it. After starting it at the meeting, I finished it at home. I actually had a different background up top and hated it so I took it out with a brush and added fixative to allow for more pastel. I also used some fixative to allow me to come back and brighten the colors a bit. Enjoy.
