I have admired your avatar. Thank you so much for posting a larger picture. This is jaw-droppingly gorgeous and you definitely have a very rare talent. I love how you even did the highlighting on the mermaids body to simulate underwater reflections of light. Please tell us how your GD reacted when she first saw it? She had to have been thrilled beyond words. I agree with so many others you should enter it in some shows if you can get it loaned back to you for that. Absolutely stunning work.
