Close up

 
Tthis is Jewel, the mermaid who sports precious stones all over her tail!(not really) But they do look expensive!
Her beautiful, vibrant tail glitters with golden glitter over a buttery yellow. And there are rhinestones and some kind of heart bead scattered throughout her tail. I wish I knew my stones better darn-it. These heart beads are some kind of stone and I do not remember what. Anyway, they look very expensive. She just dazzles, there is no better word for it. She is ready for the opera! She is singing right now to her starfish friend. Look at her flaming red/orange hair!! Her huge mane also has yellow highlights, very extraordinary indeed.
The background of this painting is done with two kinds of blues, a pearlescent blue over an ultramarine blue. Very shimmery and water-like.
