Artist's Comments

Alright! i'm done!! This piece took me four days, worked from 12 to 2 am the first day, then two more hours while eating on the Pizza place wich helped me get a customer who wants a portrait too...yesterday almost three hours listening to all i have of Bjork, really inspired me and today a couple more adding details and fixing colors and shadows. It's been a while since i used color pencils, my hand is in pain today. I could have make this one in a shorter time with watercolors but i wanted to have examples of other tools i can use.


I got a picture of :iconmortemer-stock: gallery who has a very interesting face and this is what i saw in her, she really got me with that face and hair and i love mermaids. I see Bjork as a mermaid who inspired me even more while making this mermaid with a comb and it happens that this girl resembles Bjork a lot, well, at least to me.


Unfortunately for me and some fans, Miss Mortemer wont allow anyone to sell prints with her face on them.
