FLOWERS OF THE DEEP

Hi, There!

Hope you are all well.  Not much time for me to be blogging or creating as I would like but I did manage to find time to color up this mermaid image from Aurora Wings and I love mermaids!  Now I need another fix so I am going to search thru my flash drive for more mermaids waiting to be brought to life!  I love how she lays in the deep with her treasures and she seems to caress this skull very possessively and I love that about this image.  Love the expression on her face.  And I may be stretching the Aurora Wings Challenge for Flowers but I believe she has flowers from the sea draping over her shoulders and I am interpeting the starfish as the flowers of the deep!  Thanks for stopping by to take a peek, enjoy the rest of your week.  Till next time, hugs ~ CaroleAnn

I would like to enter this card in Aurora Wings Challenge for April - Flowers
