How fitting to have a beautiful mermaid in total harmony with the ocean life, a symbol of our existence half human half fish, maybe a statement about being a little more in tune with the underwater environment, the keeper of our existence.<\/p>\n<p>I hope in some small way that my painting can impact a little on people\u2019s minds to pull back a bit and take notice of what we are doing to the oceans.
