Okay, so I have been OBSESSIVELY drawing these little mermaid people. I started on a post-it note and then developed them further by morphing the human form with a fish-like form. I did not refer to a reference image for these...they all came from inside my head.
I think I am going to try and create the final oil painting completely from memory (not looking at any images and solely relying on my mind).
The idea of that scares me in its entirety...however, I think I will go for it. I've never done something like that, but I think it will be a good creative experience because it will switch up my process entirely to how I've been drawing on the post-it notes. Going to give it a go. Here are some of the post-its.
