This Is What Awesome Looks Like @selfiesonpoint - Tumblr Blog

Good morning Starshine, the Earth says “Hello!”✨

Couldn’t be more stunning.

there are many young merfolk out there, so i felt the desire to create a badass elder for mermay :) she’s as much derived from as she is dedicated to the vuvalini of MMFR– i also sincerely hope she brings joy to my mutuals older than me who always delight and inspire me, and to all older women in fandom, really, who i continuously thought of while working on her

i hope it’s obvious but just in case: she’s beluga / inuit. and yes, a name and backstory eventually developed! haha

oh y’all this is my first non-fanart piece to break 1k notes and i’m SO excited it’s enthusiasm for this design in particular! thank you; i’m so relieved and encouraged by the warm responses 🙏🏻💙

i ADORE this merfolk lady. Because she has a beluga tail, she is of my people. I come from the frigid waters of the Saguenay river, where the Belugas live. I am of her tribe. She is my Elder. My great grandmother many times removed.

this is making some rounds again so i need to reiterate: thank you so much to every first nations commenter. your feedback of feeling respectfully represented and excited is my measure of genuine success for this piece.

It was several years ago that I first saw this merwoman piece during mermay. I had never seen anything remotely like it, the complexity of character in one single image. I had never seen:

-a whale merperson

-an elder merperson

-a merperson with one arm

-a tattooed merperson

-a merperson with a weapon

I’ve seen a lot more different kinds of merpeople since then, but when I see this, it still takes my breath away. This is not only a beautiful piece of art, but it changed the way I see the world. Thank you for making this.

Someday we’ll see makeup like this in a future-fantasy movie and it will be the visual hit of the year- but we saw it here first 😍👩🏽‍🎤

6 years but still!!! Mid 2014 i was severely depressed and almost killed myself. I was in an all girl catholic school where my teachers would tease me for not being a cishet girl. my relationship with my dad was starting to get worse (its still bad) and i developed agoraphobia. it was a rlly dark time but i survived. I once read this cliche phrase that said “fake it till you make it” and went by that for ya year and a half. then i just kinda forgot about it. Honestly this is such a long story i rlly dont wanna say eveeeerything now maybe some other time i will but im happy! happy that i survived that year, and that i could survive anything. Im struggling again but i can get myself back together again :^)
