Just a little lionfish mermaid wondering what's this thing floating down. With a tiny nudibranch pet on his shoulder. #MerMay #mermaidmonday #art #artistsofinstagram #digital #photoshop #wacom #nudibranch #lionfish #mating #dive #mask #underwater #ocean #water #fish #water

"Elfleda", gouache on 8x8 cold press. Unicorn centaurette. Purple seems to be a really nice color for unicorns for me, probably due to the first line in The Last Unicorn ("The unicorn lived in a lilac wood..."). #art #artistsofinstagram #kidlit #illustration #gouache #gouacheph #centaur #centaurette #unicorn #lilac #purple #horn #mythical #myth #legend #fantasy

Random Utena doodle. Because I've wanted to do fanart of her in like, forever. #deletelater

I waited about 30min underwater to see actual Mandarin Gobies mating during a dusk dive. These fishes are uber-pretty colorful. #MerMay. #art #artistsofinstagram #digital #photoshop #wacom #mandaringoby #mandarinfish #mating #dive #dusk #underwater #ocean #water #fish #light #water

Yakan tribal attire (Basilan, Mindanao). Currently looking for the next tribal attire. I probably should do something for Ilocos region... Gouache on @stillmanandbirn Delta series. #art #artistsofinstagram #gouache #gouacheph #gouachegals #tribal #native #attire #philippines #painting #NickerEnogu

Maris for #mermaidmonday for #MerMay! She's also from Rescue Sirens @rescuesirens Chris Sanders' book about mermaids disguised as lifeguards. I sorta figured she'd have a Starbucks (two-tailed mermaid) special order frappe in her hand at times. I dunno how she's drinking that underwater, tho. XD Mermaid Maris on a May Monday! ❤️ Gouache on wc paper. #art #artofinstagram #artofjmeforonda #artistsofinstagram #gouache #gouacheph #mermaid #rescuesirens #chrissanders #lifeguard #book #bookheroines

Happy #MerMay Mother's Day to all you moms out there! Old brushpen doodle I did when my son was born! Might just revisit this idea and paint it. ❤️ #art #artofinstagram #artofjmeforonda #illustration #mermaid #mother #son #motherandchild #child #aquatic #fantasy #water #childrensillustration #brushpen #pentel

Mermaid with tiny pet dragonets for #MerMay ! Done on Photoshop + Intuos 4. Old digital work, I bust out the Wacom every now and then to make some. Mostly, I do digital work for my commissions these days, though. 😝 #art #artofinstagram #artofjmeforonda #digital #mermaid #tbt #dragon #dragonet #wacom #intuos #photoshop #ocean #sea #water #fantasy #aquatic #childrensillustration #illustration

Nim from Rescue Sirens @rescuesirens Chris Sanders' book about mermaids disguised as lifeguards (what better job, yeah?). First #mermaidmonday in May!

Igorot attire (Mountain Province, Cordillera region). Did another version of this one cuz I wasn't too satisfied with the previous one. I like how this one turned out. 😁 Gouache on @stillmanandbirn Delta series. #art #artofjmeforonda #artofinstagram #painting #gouachegals #gouache #gouacheph #tribal #ethnic #indigenous #philippines #NickerEnogu #stillmanandbirn

Sophie Pendragon, gouache. This is the former Ms. Hatter (now Mrs. Howl Pendragon) in House of Many Ways. She came into her own as a renowned witch and I like to think some of Howl's flamboyance rubbed off on her. She was introduced in the book as "modishly dressed in a peacock blue dress that set off her red gold hair and blue green eyes to perfection". #art #artofjmeforonda #artofinstagram #gouache #gouacheph #gouachegals #sophie #howl #howlsmovingcastle #movingcastleseries #houseofmanyways #dianawynnejones #book #literature #bookheroines #blue #witch #magic #howlpendragon #sophiependragon #sophiehatter
