Hi patrons!! Hope you're doing well!
This year I wasn't sure if I was going to participate on mermay or not, but here I am! A couple of days ago I pulled out some ideas I liked so I'll give it a shot :D mostly, I'll be drawing little scenes with dialogues that kinda represent my story (the one with the sailor and the mermaid) and some other times I'll draw cute mermaids for the sake of just drawing mermaids haha I think it's nice to balance between your comfort zone and learning something new so I wanna do that.
So far I've sketched only 9 ideas and started drawing 3 of them. My goal is to do around 10-15 illustrations in total, I don't want to stress much over it and on top of that, I need to buy some time to show you the stuff I'm working on first before posting it anywhere else! I want to be organized on that matter.
✦ Here are the sketches (this is my ugly sketchbook by the way, I'm super happy to have this little book to sketch without minding the result) you can see the phrases that will go with each drawing:




✦ Some of these I'll be drawing on my Moleskine sketchbook and some others will be bigger illustrations on single watercolor sheets, like these ones I already finished:

✦ Anddddd here's a little work in progress of the third one:

✦ To end this post, I leave you here too the mermay prompt list I created today. They are actually words and elements I've always liked about the sea, I thought it would be nice to share them for inspiration

That's it for today!!
btw tomorrow means a MONTH since I opened my patreon page! Thank you not only for your support but also because you joined in the very first month with this page starting from scratch, which I will always appreciate so much! Thank you ❤️
Have a nice end of the week!
