Serafina Mixed Media Gypsy Mermaid

Gypsy mermaid sounds intriguing enough. What might she look like? I thought I would give a sneak peek of Serafina, my very own mixed media gypsy mermaid in progress.

I've spent weeks working on her and loving the results so far. Here's a bit of trivia for you. Serafina's top was originally a flat piece of fabric. My father suggested that I create something more dimensional.

Art directed by my own father! Can you imagine? That little tip shaped the direction of the entire painting for the better and Serafina became a gypsy mermaid.
