"Mermaid Reading" by AJ Gray

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 4 out of 10 by AJ Gray. ←Previous - Next→


	No idea what is in the book she is reading. My idea for this was as part of a larger sea-scape, but that never happened. I still can't colour well, but I like how the line art come out. I was aiming for the style of a Medieval European manuscript, and I think it comes close to that.

3 Nov 2009	Tom Draco Noir Taylor	Loading... It does look like an old wood cut-nice job. Does raise the question however- what would a mermaid read? Old Man and the Sea, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Moby ****, or perhaps even a tome on Mathematics? If the latter, perhaps she should be wearing an Algae-bra. AJ Gray replies: "Oh dear, oh dear. (Actually, I quite enjoyed the puns!) "
3 Nov 2009	Tom Draco Noir Taylor	Loading... Sorry, It seems to have edited the title of the famous Melville book- The strict anti-profanity editing even removes words like pea** and **atoo.You have to say "peafowl" (which we used to raise) Or misspell cocatoo. i wasn’t swearing at you, honestly. AJ Gray replies: "Thanks for the explanation. I thought it meant Moby wildcard, or something like that. D’oh."
