This painting seeks to encapsulate the ethereal grace of a mermaid submerged within the ocean's hushed depths, inspired by the boundless beauty of the underwater world and the lore of mystic sea creatures. The figure is intended to embody both elegance and intrigue, with her elongated neck drawing the eye in a manner that emphasises her otherworldly refinement, as if she bridges the line between myth and reality.
Surrounding her are curious fish, captivated by her presence, their gentle movements and inquisitive gazes turning them into witnesses, admirers of her quiet power.I wanted these creatures to echo the universal wonder and awe we feel when encountering something extraordinary, something we don't yet understand.Through this painting, I aim to evoke a sense of curiosity, inviting viewers to imagine the mysteries hiding beneath the waves, to feel the pull of stories untold. It is my hope that the painting will serve as a meditation on grace, the beauty of being seen, and the mesmerising balance between fragility and strength that exists in all forms of life.
