MerMay. Day 12. MerMaze. Final pencils.
The Sketchbook of Cris Palomino: Adventures in ✍️ drawing

Decided to switch things out. The sponsor for day 10 is a social app. Day 12 is MerMaze Mermaidz, so I think this one is more sosh-app; the other will be better with Mermaidz.
-
These are all so beautifully done.

@crispalomino Really great and fluid motions, you are a natural mermaid painter. Will you do something with all these mermaids?
Do you create these in Procreate? -

Hi, Andrew. That’s so kind of you to say. I hope to translate these to some shirts and other items at my RedBubble store. I do love Mermaids and it’s my first time participating in MerMay. These challenges are definitely challenging. I always come away feeling like I’ve learned more. And that’s always a win. Yes. Procreate is my program of choice.
-
@crispalomino Do you have some other examples of your finished work? Are you primarily a figure drawing artist? I can't open instagram as I am in China. Actually I have seen some other pieces of your work, the seed eater(awesome) and the monsters go work. I really like that too.
-
@PenAndrew these are some things. I like doing animals as well as humans.
-
@crispalomino I totally love that fox. I see you use a Chinese character like the character for woman. The owl is very delicate, lovely work and I like that tiger a lot too. You are very versatile.

@PenAndrew, thanks. I know it as onna. My best friend at Disney was Japanese and he said when I signed CP, it resembled onna. So it’s a combination of my initials and onna.
Thank you for your kind words about my work.
-
@crispalomino You are most welcome, and they are sincerely meant. what does onna mean? What time zone are you in?
-
@PenAndrew ty. It’s the Japanese word for woman. Uses the same kanji.

MerMay. Day 12. MerMaze. Finished.

@crispalomino Beautiful and such rich colour.

Stopped being inspired by the prompts from MerMay, but they got me drawing them, so that’s a win.

@crispalomino I think you should do a caricature of a mermaid or something weird and totally different as you are so good at them. Mermaid of Horror!
