A little practice on charcoal… haven’t used it for a while. I really don’t like how the ocean looks but now I know how to do better next time. :)

the mermaid in you 10 day challenge
1. why do you love mermaids?
i don't even remember when i first fell in love with mermaids but it's all i wanted to be as a kid. as many people will say, being underwater is as close as most of us get to flying. there's something so tranquil and beautiful about the world below and it would be so magical to live there, feeling the currents in your hair rather than wind, gazing up at the surface, sleeping on beds of kelp and sea grass and drifting with the tides.

Fairy Tale Meme:
6 Creatures- [Selkie]
The fisherman could not stop staring. You see, he had fallen in love at first sight, and because he was a young man, and terribly headstrong, he thought he must keep her with him. He clutched the sealskin to his chest, pressing it to his pounding heart.
"Dear lady," he said gently, "be my wife, for I have fallen madly in love with you, and without your sealskin, you’ll have to live on land. I’ll make you happy, that I promise."
"Please sir," she cried, "my folk will be so worried. I must go home. Never could I be happy on land."
