This one is on Stonehenge Aqua hotpress paper with watercolor. Added a bit of silver and gold acrylic pen marks to make the scales and outline some areas. The words are in silver acrylic pen.
Thanks, Jennifer. I think I'm moving in another direction with the mermaid tails...maybe adding some things (just got some free paper from a friend who couldn't use it for colored pencil work but which might work for collage after coloring some of it). Collage, printmaking, etc...who knows where the mermaids will go.
These would be lovely as monoprints. ...maybe watercolour monoprints with added drawing? Like Jennifer I think the lines really work. Such a happy series.

the shiny lines are a great touch :)
