Description

MERMAID WITH MARDIS GRAS HAIR could be a mermaid in masquerade or a brilliantly costumed mardi gras woman using ribbons to match traditional Colors used at Mardi Gras. Her tail and fluke are shimmery metallic teal and her skin is a yellow green shade. She has amethyst colored hair and eyebrows. Her gaze is fixed straight ahead as a hypnotic look comes across her face. I wanted a unusual looking sea princess and got the idea to use green and purple streaked hair.

______________________

"All Mermaids entered European mythology with conflicting personalities: Sometimes they were portrayed as beautiful, seductive maidens, almost goddesses like Atargatis or Venus, greatly desired by lonely sailors, while also being cast as siren-esque beasts that dragged men into the inky-black depths. Mermaids found their way deep into the nautical lore of the Middle Ages onward. In legend, it was best to avoid mermaids and mermen, just to be sure. Olaus Magnus, the 16th century writer & cartographer whose seminal map Carta Marina obsessively cataloged the many monsters of the seas around Scandinavia, noted that fishermen maintain that if you reel in a mermaid or merman, and do not presently let them go, such a cruel tempest will arise, and such a horrid lamentation of that sort of men comes with it, and of some other monsters joining with them, that you would think the sky should fall. Sea-people, it was widely held, were terribly bad luck to see or snag."
(Wiki history of Mermaids).

Pamela Smale Williams Artography combines photography with digital painting to create a different final art piece. "It's own kind of genre, I coined the term "Artography" in 2009 for the process that blends photography techniques and both pigment art and digital paint as a mixed media all its own". It's both ART and PHOTOGRAPHY but it's an intelligent progression from the way artists evolved and mixed mediums.
