Mermaid #2
gouache on colored ground
15"x 20"

"Like the 'Eagle Rider' image, this was done for Don Lagerberg's life drawing class. On this day Don brought aquarium- and sea-oriented props to class, so several students turned the model into a mermaid.
    "If the eyes look especially spooky in the small view, check the detail at the bottom of the page. The model had a coy upward glance I wanted to catch."
