Thank you. I used to "free" dive around the scuba divers when I was bored on scuba trips. It was a magical, vunerable feeling and I wanted to show that here. All the twisting and turning around, the rush of water past skin, the eye on the prize below.

I was repeating her hair and tried to make her all wavy and flowy like she is swimming to the bottom.

Thank you, I had to match her long body and tail with her hair. It was fun to paint.

I've been seriously studying watercolor for 3 years now and I found I like it better than acrylics.

Well it certainly seems you've mastered watercolor!

I'm trying, not exactly mastered, I would like to know more about the chemical composition of the colors and how they react (like opaque, transparent etc.) I don't have them memorized so my color selection is kinda limited.

Well to the untrained eye, you certainly seem to know what you're doing.
