Not Quite Darryl Hannah - mermaid garden

22x15 watercolor on WN 140 lb cold press paper, painted wet in wet.  I saw these iron mermaids surrounding a small pond at an ironworks store in New Mexico so had to paint them; they must have weighed a ton and were larger than life.  Sadly the store closed and all garden statues have disappeared.
