Hey Cris ! It went into your gallery in no time ! It is really a wonderful addition, I love what you have made of that piece. She's perfect, and without a single element of cliché (which is really something for a subject as over-done as mermaids). |

Yay! Huzzah for broken cliches'!

Euripides was a nice guy, wasn't he? (or at least the character in his works to whom the quote belongs was...)
She's indeed lovely, Chris, but I'm double glad you kept a strong undercurrent that says 'danger' in this work. Mythological mermaids *weren't* beautiful, innocent fish-tailed girls dying over a mortal price's love. They were wild, unpredictable, charming and dangerous, and your work says it all, kudos. |

Very enticing, painterly piece, Christine! That bold tail, her expression and all your meticulous work make this girl really believable. But it's the juicy brushwork I like best. |
| (Christine M. Griffin) |
Thanks, Walt! That's high praise, coming from you...you're the KING of juicy brushwork!
