A commission from 2006, done for ~akai-no-akuma, featuring her mer-character Ahura thinking about his human friend Neri. Merfolk are a lot of fun to draw! I haven't done an underwater scene in a while, it was a nice change of pace. I like the bubbles. ^__^
two fav things about this: using just blue/blue green and the dark edges makes it seem so intimate, and the way the merman extends past the background is awesome! reminds me of Amy Brown's watercolor fairies ^.^
