Description Tadah! My first picture done on my nice watercolor paper and what a difference paper makes!! I really had fun making this one-eventhough mermaids arent quite my thing (I don't know why ). Took me awhile to paint it though, been feeling ill lately. x_x Anyway enjoy! And did I mention I LOVE THIS PAPER?!

well, I am affraid I will have to make an exeption from hating watermarked pictures and fav this one...

I am real ammateur with watercolors, so I can't judge the details and changes with new paper, but only to say it is gorgeous...

Oh, it makes a big difference. The heavier papers are far easier to work with and the colors turn out far more vibrant.
Thank you again!
I really must get new art up soon! I'm embarrassed at how old my submissions are!!

Normally, I'm not in to mermaids that much... but I love how you painted her tail, it looks like it was coated with, hm, little gems maybe. And I love how the birds fly, and the tree's bark, it's so incredibly detailed!
Amazing work!
