The moon churns the tide, washing ashore this curious mermaid. The tide’s gentle motion sways her body, trying to coax her back into the sea. She rests on the beach with her fellow inhabitant of the sea curious about this part of the world that she so rarely gets to see.
This painting was painted in 2007 with watercolors and modified in Photoshop. It is the third in the Zodiac series, as the feminine Cancer, represented by the crab for cancer and the mermaid symbolizing that it is a water sign.
