I'm coming up on page 200 for Deep Water this next Thursday on Comicfury! I wanted to do a pretty splash page for pg 201 this is one of the concepts. When I'm doing a splash or a cover I usually run a concept or a draft first. Still can't get sunbeams underwater quite right-lol

Posted this on my other account as well, but my new sticker design delights me too much not to put it here.

Its been a minutes since I've posted anything here for the comic. So here are some fun sketches, one of the anatomy of merman and another of him fulfilling his strippershark dreams. Still here! Still posting pages every Tuesday and Thursday on comicfury-

Background test that I never ended up using. But I love painting those mysterious foggy scenes.

Guess those female presenting nipples are just to suggestive for blusky. Lets try this again, this time with another mermaid from my 2023 mermay collection.

I'll even put the suggestive tag on it blusky, she DOES look like she's about to drown and eat the next sailor who comes her way. #mermaid
Plus sized mermaid looking over her shoulder at the viewer. full view of back. She has red fins and hair.

Early concept sheet for the Merman. Who knew that merpeople could vogue?

#merman #siren #conceptart #watercolor
a concept sheet. Three images of the same Merman taken from various angles. one image of the merman swimming, one of him laying on his stomach and one of him sitting on a rock. His tail is green and turquoise

Nereocystis, Mermaids bladder- but most popularly known as Bull Kelp!
Maybe its the color scheme? I'm not sure myself but painting kelp forests is always a very calming thing for me. Good thing a lot of the comic takes place under water!
#watercolor #art
A watercolor painting showing a underwater scene of a Bull kelp forest. Bull kelp fastens itself tot he ocean floor then has a long stalk that reaches for the surface where the blades fan out like hair.

Can I promise never to make a title that rhymes ever again? No, because I usually don't know when I do it.

an excerpt from one of my favorite pages. You can read Deep Water at www.deepwatercomic.com ( also I don't know if you've ever swam in jeans, but let me tell you what a miserable, heavy, chaffing experience as soon as you get out of the water)

I may have homework up the wazoo, but will I avoid all that to post some mermay pics on this site. Why yes, yes I will.

Originally the cover for vol. 3 of Deep Water, I scrapped this one but used it as coloring practice. I love making some monstrous mermaids.

ironically my favorite of the "back" series is not the most popular- I don't mind, as it turns out what people want most these days is come cheesecake and a nap. I get it.

I think if there's a specific mermaid I always draw its a napping one. Somehow a nice beach nap in the sun just sounds lovely.

I lost my paternal Grandmother and much beloved cat Loki within a two week period. I'm also still in school and not really balancing all these issues as well as I'd like. Deep Water will start updating again at the end of May. Here's a picture of a happy sleeping Loki in better times.

Nearly fully prepared for the next two conventions! Now its just relying on the Great Shipping Gods to get all my stuff here on time is not my favorite. Until then enjoy a kelp forest! #comic #comics #webcomics #ocean #myart #artist #watercolor

Bear with me while I figure out this website. But in the meantime you can read my comic Deep Water at www.deepwatercomic.com about a lady who finds a merman in her pool. #merman #deepwater #mermaids #webcomic #comic
