"Turquoise Lime / Golden Mermaid" - Postcard


© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

This week's Sunday Postcard Art challenge was "Turquoise and Lime."

I started this by "stamping" two different ephemera backgrounds on a white postcard. Next, I blotted on turquoise and lime green splotches of color. I "stamped" a fish ornament at the top. Then I placed part of a poem about mermaids on this. I used the golden mermaid for a focal point, and included turquoise colored dolphin/sea monsters.

I created this using GIMP 2.8.22.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. (See the side of my blog for links.)

    Nice image. I like the text behind the mermaid. It looks like she's sitting on it. Well found.
