Mermaid Swap
8 x 10 Canvas Panel - WIP
I'm still alive! (But just barely).
I've been spending every free Mama-minute in the last few weeks working on my studio redo. The cleaning and purging has reached new heights and as a result, I'm happy (no, thrilled) to report that I am finally done! I'll share the incredibly organized (for now ;) results in my next post . . . .
While I was poking around in there I came across several canvases in various stages of completion. This one covered in paint chips has been a favorite for a while, but I had no plan for it - until now. I'm participating in sweet Cameron's Mermaid Swap, and as soon as I saw the blue chips with names like "Shallow Sea" peeking through, I knew what it was destined for.
Hoping to finish her for PPF, linking the sketched version now to Sunday Sketches.
Thanks for your visit (and patience with me),
Kristin xo

I just finished my studio re-do. I hope yours was easier than mine was. But doesn't it feel good to walk into your fresh, organized space and know that you did it?
Lovely piece, and looking forward to seeing your newly designed studio! Valerie

A mermaid swap, what a fun idea! She's lovely and I'm sure will be super lovely when all the way done!
Can't wait to see the finished version. That blue is gorgeous. And her eyes are already mesmerizing.

Ooooh,paint chips as a background, I love it! I love the grid-like pattern it gives to the background... I never thought of that...
I can't wait to see your newly organized studio. And if you had any strokes of genius regarding studio organization, do share!
Beautifully Blue! Love it!
The monochromatic blue color scheme gives it a truly aquatic feel. Blessings!
This is perfect for a mermaid!! Congrats on the studio redo- can't wait to see it!
SO pretty and blue. Will match your hair perfectly!
Looking forward to seeing your studio and this girl is haunting. LOVE!!!
