Drawesome Challenge #36 - MerMay

Knock me down with a feather, I did a [community profile] DRAWESOME challenge. I was doodling with my carbon ink pen and suddenly thought, wasn't there a MerMay challenge?

2021 Mermay doodle carbon ink



No pencil, no plan, just ink.

this is detailed and sensual and gorgeous. Reminds me of Aubrey Beardsley.

Ooh, love all the quirky details and the upside down mermaid's very cute! Also the charmingly blobby seals (sentient rocks?) in the middle. And I just noticed the platypus! :D

I worked roughly top down and the whole sea part happened because one of the blobs looked a bit like a jelly fish! It's a weird, kind of mindless process. 😂

That mermaid looks fierce! And I see how someone got an Aubreyesque vibe from this, it was an association I had as well.

Guess she's not that happy being upside down after all, huh? 😂Thank you!
