Curvy Girl Mermaid Underwater

Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing my colouring of Curvy Girl Mermaid by Stamping Bella. 

Supplies used:

Holtz Perfect Colouring Paper

Copic Markers

Memento Black ink

Designer paper

White card. 

I started out by colouring the skin with E00, E04, 011 and  BV01. I also applied some E21 in the mid-tone areas. 

For her bright pink hair I used RV04, RV06, RV09 and RV19. 

The flower and leaves -

BG01, BG02, BG05. Y13, Y15, Y17. YG05 and YG17. I also applied some white gel pen for extra highlights. 

To colour the tail I first applied BG01 all over. Then I layered on BG02 and BG05 in dots to give the appearance of texture. On the tail I brought in RV02 and RV04 and RV10 and blended it with the blue.

The pearl was coloured with RV10, BG01 and then faded out with colourless blender. 

I used YR20, YR21, YR23 and YR24 to colour the sand. 

For the water I worked in upward strokes starting with B00. I applied B01, B02 using the same upward stroke motion, layering until I was happy with how it looked. 

I then cut out the image with a double stitched square and matted it onto patterned paper and a white card base. 

Thanks for dropping by today and see you next month.
