Description
An ACEO I made from polymer clay with glass gems, a solid brass mermaid and shell. All of the little corals, shells and such were made of clay. I gave it a wash of acrylic paint to bring out the details.ACEO stands for Artist Cards Editions and Originals. They are small, affordable, collectible works of art and can be made of any material. The only rule is their size which is 2.5" x 3.5" or the size of a baseball trading card.

Love how you got the coral to look so realistic and the mermaid and shell are gorgeous. It makes me want to sing songs from "The Little Mermaid"

There is a parade of fishing boats, from the coast to a few miles, loaded with all the people that want to rise, and each boat is a celebration with cake and champagne in honor of San Pedro, is a very popular holiday among the fishermen.
