Pas De Deux

Well I would have liked to get this done earlier, but Christmas snuck up on me faster than usual. Anyways, it's inspired by my favourite piece from The Nutcracker Ballet. You can tell listening to it that Tchaikovsky was a hopeless romantic.

Merry Christmas!! oxox

Mermaid Consoles the Unicorn

"A mermaid AND a unicorn? Are you MAD?" Perhaps. I've seen this theme explored by other artists but I found their compositioning awkward, understandable when trying to pair a tall land creature with a legless, sea-dwelling one. I wanted to throw my hat in the ring. I find it difficult to clothe mermaids, seems too Disney-ey, not "realistic" (because as we all know mermaids ARE real. *cough*)

Lorelei

According to German legend, there was once a beautiful young maiden, named Lorelei, who threw herself headlong into the river in despair over a faithless lover. Upon her death she was transformed into a siren and could from that time on be heard singing on a rock along the Rhine River, near St. Goar. Her hypnotic music lured sailors to their death. The legend is based on an echoing rock with that name near Sankt Goarshausen, Germany. Ink & watercolor.

The Red Shoes

Ink & Watercolour. It's inspired by the movie, which was inspired by the fairytale by Hans Christian Andersen.
