The image of mermaids in world painting
Mermaids - mysterious mystical creatures, which not once inspired poets and writers. At the same time, the Slavic mermaid is very different from Western representations. This is an unacquainted soul, a beautiful drowned woman, as in the work of Gogol.
The mermaid is usually depicted as a naked girl with a fish tail; however, she may have a pair of legs and a pair of tails, which, in turn, can be not only fish, but also dolphin or snake. She sings marvelous songs, and often also plays the harp.

As my work is based on the Art Nouveau style and the seductive drawings of Egon Schiele, it is not surprising that my constant subject matter is women. Using mainly graphite pencils to create bold clean lines, it is important for me to convey fearlessness in portraying sexuality, intimacy and femininity!
