Mermaid Painting “She Carried the Light”

When I got hacked I lost my entire blog so this is a repost (modified) from April 2015.

I will admit it. I’m a weanie when it comes to swimming in big waves at the ocean so I don’t go in very deep when I see waves crashing. I’ve never been a strong swimmer. You might say I dabble in swimming. I have snorkeled a couple times and enjoyed it but I don’t have a deep desire to do it again.

Since I’m not a mermaid, I decided at least I could paint one.

“She Carried the Light”, acrylic on paper, 9″ x 9″

So here she is carrying the light through the depths of the deep blue sea.


There are prints for sale in my Etsy Shop.

I make colorful, boho art to uplift the spirit! I love that hippie laid-back vibe of boho decorating. The paintings I create show my love of colorful artwork, joy and positive energy! The spirits within nature – tiny birds, the intriguing raven, trees that dance in the wind, all spring to life in my paintings.
