The Little Mermaid

This is an illustration I did a while back after reading Hans Christian Andersen's "The Little Mermaid" Which is quite a bit darker than the disney story. I was inspired by the overall melancholy of the theme, and painted this as a result.

Is that really how Ariel looked in the original novel of The Little Mermaid?

Really nice image, very gloomy. The underwater effect is really well done, perspective and proportions are also really well put together. The background also seems massive even though there isn't that much in it really. Just well choosen colors. Great work.
