Artist's Comments

Okay, so :iconelcool: kinda challange me once to find the weirdest way to hide the hands and feet in my drawings, turning them into fins is pretty weird in my books :XD:

I know the colouring here sucks, I really wasn't thinking while I was colouring plus the blue I used to colour the whale (The big squareish thing is a whale... I hope.) died on me :P

And now to explain why I even drew this picture... well my little sister is going on some kind of disney crazy and I was thinking "How can they make a mermaid seem like good creatures? They were man-eaters in the greek mythology!" So I wanted to draw a scene that might be a bit more logical and this is what came out, don't ask me why, it just did.
When I showed it to my friends they asked me why she had no cheast, well, how do you expact some-one to be a quick swimmer if they have a huge cheast?! Plus fish don't have any cheast to speak of and she's part fish, therefore, she shouldn't have huge breasts.
That and I just felt like it.

Hehehe! It's great!
You know, there is an ancient problem with mermaids. If the bottom half is the tail, how do you... You know. "Interact" with them? Well, the answer lies either in the Starbucks logo ([link]) or with your drawing :D.

Thanks :D

And yeah I read a joke about that somewhere... but I won't post it here because it's quite rude and I really should be doing some studying now, and if I write it I'm SURE i'll burst out laughing when my English Bagrut comes along :XD:
And that artical is very interesting... I never thought of that idea before... but I'd rather have fin-feet like in my drawing, seems more practical (No, not in that way! Just easier way to swim)

When first I appear I seem mysterious,
but when explained I'm nothing serious.

Yeah, because swimming is what merdudes think about all the time ;)

The same was as you do with fish, of course.

When you're older, you'll find you comment much funnier :D.

Who says I don't find them funny now? Or that I write them on purpose like that?

For some reason if you act childish people are quite surprised when you say some-thing smart and mature, and then they think you're smarter then you really are... I'm guessing that's why teachers never ask me questions when they think I'm not paying attention, if you answer them right when they don't expect it to be right they get embrassed and never ask you again :XD:
