A mermaid with flowing dark hair and a shimmering tail floats gracefully against a soft, scaled background in cool aquamarine and seafoam tones. Rendered in watercolor with delicate line work, the figure exudes a dreamy, ethereal quality enhanced by the gentle gradient and repeating scale pattern that suggests an underwater world. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
