"I must be a mermaid...I have no fear of depths and a great fear of shallow living"
- Anaïs Nin
I really do love mermaids. These intangible, mercurial creatures are my muses when making my paper doll art. There are no rules and no limits to my imagination when designing my mermaids.
"I am forever drawn to the ocean. I find the ocean mesmerizing, dangerous, and calming at the same time. Maybe it's the vast unknown that is attractive. So to me, mermaids embody the ocean and all its mystery, danger, and beauty. There's something about mermaids that is devastatingly romantic and elusive".
So when I sit down to make my paper dolls I mix a little of my hopeless romantic side with a bit of my love for haute couture fashion and the end result is always something different.
My latest mermaid paper dolls are my holiday-inspired creations.

And that's my mermaid rap! Thanks for stopping by and go live deeply!
