She created incredibly detailed and somewhat abstract patterns by using one of the most difficult mediums I know of. I definitely get some serious artist envy when I look at her works. She's definitely an artist to look out for in the next few months. Wall Tapestries starting at $39.00. Mermaid Through The Keyhole 1 by David Andrew SussmanImage Source: Society 6 This piece has a folk art feel that I was so captured by. The color scheme gives it a vintage feel. David Andrew Sussman's works have a contemporary folky vibe to all of his works and are reminiscent of persian rug designs. It's a great spin on a modern trend. Canvas Print starting at $85.00 Glowing Aqua Abalone Shell Mother of Pearl by TheMermaidLagoonHoly Mother of Pearl this is a gorgeous design. It reminds me of alcohol ink. The pearly color scheme to this work will definitely have your home feeling like it's under the sea. Add some teal streamers to your curtains and you'll be living in a mermaid's paradise. TheMermaidLagoon has a variety of mother of pearl products. Image Source: Society 6 Wall Clock Price: $30.00 Mermaids by Sara MaeseWhat a fun and quirky pattern! Sara Maese is a spanish illustrator with a knack for capturing the human spirit in her seamless patterns. Every pattern she creates has so much visually to look at. It's as if each character is telling it's own story and the story here is that these mermaids are having way too much fun. I want to join them! How about you? Pillow Price: $20.00 Mermaid by SsstI'm having serious Tom Hanks flashbacks to Splash with this piece. Ssst captures how mermaid lovers often feel. If only my bathtub were the size of an ocean, am I right? What an incredibly talented digital artist. Nas the artist behind Ssst is a half Dutch half French artist who dabbles in writing as well. Nas even shares their process with others on their site. Definitely worth the checkout. Art prints starting at $14.56 Art Deco Marble Tiles in Soft Pastels by MicklynMarble. Scallops. Art Deco. So many wonderful elements coming together in Micklyn's mermaid scales inspired designs. The color palette to this piece isn't traditional when you think of Mermaid which is why I find it all the more remarkable. Price: $20.00 I hope you enjoyed this curated collection and feel free to leave your thoughts below.
