I love the story of the Little Mermaid. This obsession is no doubt rooted in my childhood visits to my grandma's house, where I would repeatedly watch the movie. My other grandmother also had a copy of The Little Mermaid, but i liked this one a lot better. In this one, ariel was blonde, freckled, hung out with a dolphin, and she died at the end. ...I was a really weird kid.
The VHS vanished suddenly one day, but I never fully forgot about it. Then out of nowhere A CERTAIN FRIEND NAMED CAT OR SOMETHING popped up at school with the old thing on DVD. And we were reunited during a bout of illustrator homework. It dawned on me that between the visuals and the audio, this film was almost the equivalent of stabbing myself to death. And I love it anyway.
Amaya is kind of my own little mermaid, despite the fact that she's not half fish. So i wanted to do a couple of pieces with her, inspired by the old Hans Christian Andersen tale. The little mermaid 2000! *hit with eggs* I won't go into detail on the undercurrents in these since I think it's better for people to draw their own ideas. That and it's dead depressing. Not to mention I have rambled extensively here, and it's time to fly away.

This is gorgeous <3 The emotion in this picture is chilling! So sad an' beautiful at the same time.
I know what you mean about the little mermaid, I loved that movie as well as a child. The one with the blonde Ariel, 'cept she had no name in the story. I've been trying so hard to find that movie, I so wanna watch it again. It's so captivating, just like this picture ^^

Wow, I have a movie like that, but then I discovered it actually had better animation than the most current one XD It was Swan Lake vs Swan Princess X3

In this article I'll talk about establishing a process of working on art that will help you turn out much better work without as much struggling or confusion.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
