In this enchanting 5 x 7 inch original watercolor by Timothy D. Thomas, a whimsical little mermaid balances upside-down in a graceful handstand on the ocean floor, her tail curved in a fluid arc. Her long, flowing hair dances like sea grass in the gentle current as she playfully blows a trail of shimmering bubbles that drift toward the sunlit surface. The soft hues of aquamarine, coral, and pearl create a dreamlike underwater world filled with innocence and wonder. Delicate brushwork and luminous layering bring the scene to life, capturing a fleeting moment of joy beneath the waves.
