hello! โจ
in the spirit of this month, I wanted to make some mermaid art by diving into the world of colors found in the ocean and among marine life. I am forever inspired by the ocean and find myself noticing new things to appreciate about it with each passing year.
above: I love the variety of bright colors that fish can display, particularly when light reflects off their array of scales. there's so much inherent movement in the ocean and the life it carries, the perpetual visible change is a force I find immensely beautiful.

and this month's sticker! I loved the idea of seaweed hair and think the two look very similar, especially in motion underwater where their tendrils rhythmically move and flow.
