This one is a tough choice… gnomes or mermaids?
I went with mermaids because they are more fun to draw, IMO.
This isn’t the eat-your-face-off kind of mermaid from the last “Pirates of the Caribbean” flick, or the serial killing lure-and-drown-your-victims kind from ship’s lore… this is a Darryl Hannah/Tom Hanks “Splash” movie kind of mermaid.
The Bible describes a crystal sea in heaven (Revelation 4:6). I’m hoping there are mermaids in it. Even better, that I could BE a mermaid in heaven for a while. Doesn’t that sound like fun?

Great choice! Mermaids are awesome. Did you know people have theorized that sailors started talking about mermaids when they mistook manatees? Nice drawing.
Thanks, Don! I have heard that about the manatees. That means our images of mermaids today are entirely too skinny… 🙂
