Artist's Comments

I am submitting this painting to the ballistic publishing so I touched up some details and worked the face a bit more.

I just want to thank all the people who have commented on this painting so far. It is great to be a part of the DA community.

This painting was done for one of my closest deviant art friends. This painting was commissioned and during a dark time in her life. It wasn't intentional to echo so closely her current life and I hope some day she will look at the painting and know it was made with love and compassion.

The Model I met here at deviant and is one of the most beautiful women I know. Maria aka glazzdoll

Love ya Maria Hugs and thank you for being my model.

I have to say that your piece is really interesting and I just had to congratulate you on this being a very successful. I really that the way you seperate your space. The background is a really nice touch because when you think any underwater creature, its IN the water. I think this perceptive was a great choice to represent the feelings you wanted to represent in your work. I think that if you would of added more gentle waves around it would of gave it more of a motion. But apart from that. I don't know what I would say about this piece that would be negative. You did a great job and a great Bravo should go to you for this piece. Thank you for sharing!

This is just stunning. You have captured a lot of emotion in this piece. The colours and composition are wonderful. Amazing work!
:iconmattwatier:
Thank you very much. I am glad so many people like it. It is a sad painting because in the middle of the work on this painting the models mom died. That is why it changed in tone half way through from being a killing siren to a morn-full mermaid.

Thank you so much Matt for doing this, I'm so honored and feel blessed having you as my friend. You're amazing, it seems like you know me for a long time, I really appreciate this because at the same time, some people that were supposed to be family are acting like strangers during this difficult time, so you can see how I appreciate this so much. Thank you for being here for me. I haven't spent much time online lately but getting better each day. I think I owe you a reply on FB or I will email you, please give me a few days. There are some works that I totally neglected that I have to finish and I don't have much time.

Talk to you again soon. Lots of love! :hug: :blowkiss:

In no way was expecting you to get back to me anytime soon. I am sorry to hear that people you thought you could count on are not there. Loss of a family member is hard and I can't speak on loosing your mom because I haven't gone through it yet ,thankfully, but I can imagine it might be one of the hardest things to do. You have been a great woman and I give my support without any needs or expectations. Maria you are the one going through the hard time I am just here being whatever support you need sending love and caring and hoping one day I might get the greatest return on my investment your smile and your return to some form of happiness, that is all I want and need out people I care for.

I'm so sorry I haven't send email like I said I will, right now it's hard to focus, I have so many things I have to catch up, it's easier to drop short messages here and there tho.

I want to thank you for your kind support, it means a lot. Thank you Matt! I hope you are fine and happy and healthy, keep in touch, okay! :hug: :hug: :hug:

I really wish you would stop saying your are sorry. My life is good, not great but good enough that I can spare some of my sanity and love life with others like you. All I wish for you is get better, find some peace, and feel a bit more loved. I am glad I can be supportive in a different country and over a digital medium though. We all have moments when we are not strong enough and that is why we have friends and I am honored and thankful that I can do what little I can do for you.
