I never got around to publishing illustrations with mermaids from previous years while it was a mermay, but no one is stopping me from doing it now, I guess 🫡 So, my mermaid arts~

I love your compositional choices! Your mermaids feel very in place in their backgrounds and the compositions feel very inspired by pre-war Japanese art (I think?)

Thank you very much! It's very nice to hear! The last two works in this collection were drawn for a challenge with a historical theme. For the Chinese mermaid, I took the work of Hua Sanchuan as an example. And for the Japanese mermaid, I took old Japanese painting as a reference!

I can definitely see Hua Sanchuan’s influence in that piece! It came out beautifully!
