ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY ~ BENEATH

I need to recycle this week because I loved the subject and this illustration

 makes me wish I could do the same and it is so much fun to share.

Next to being able to fly I think I would love to be able to breathe beneath the waves.

Undersea painting from sketch #2

This is the newest version of an old version of an older version. I am happy with this outcome. I had always wanted to find a place for this whale in the undersea picture. Since it is all the way under the waves you will just have to imagine that little girls in pink bathing suits have a magical ability to breathe under water, but only when riding oversized seahorses.

These little kids are either going to make their fortune with that treasure chest, or one of them will notice the mermaid just behind them and start taking pictures!
