Be a Mermaid
Makes Waves!
A friend recently asked if I could paint a mermaid for her for a baby shower she is going to where the baby girl’s nursery theme is mermaids.
What fun it was to paint this in watercolor!Β What a fun nursery theme too!
This painting makes cute cards, so I added prints and cards to our McKinneyX2Designs Etsy shop.Β I thought the prints might be fun for little one’s rooms or nurseries and the cards for birthdays or just “under the sea” fun!
And why not be like a mermaid, and make waves!
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi

Benjamin was ecstatic to see your email this morning : “My Jodi is here!” We had quite a discussion after reading the post and viewing the painting. Benjamin said : “It is cute, for a girl.” He wanted to know if there is “a boy mermaid?” I told him that would be a merman, but that I’ve never seen a picture of one. He said : “My Jodi could do it!” To Benjamin, there is nothing that “My Jodi” can’t do! This is the sweetest little mermaid! Thank-you x 2!!

Benjamin. You must ask Gem to show you a picture of Poseidon. https://www.google.com/search?q=ancient+greek+god+of+sea&client=safari&hl=en-us&prmd=isnv&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjei7K89vraAhWimOAKHdWWCUAQ_AUIESgB&biw=414&bih=606#imgrc=zVT1NQdIqViXcM: and tell you the story of him. Have a wonderful day you two of my faves πβ€οΈ

Jodi, synchronicity! xo Hugs!
I have a post already pre-scheduled with two sweet girls’ picture names (one is mermaid theme and the other is koalas! π) Not sure if tomorrow or the next day. . . Their Mommy is having another baby so it was necessary to give the “big” sisters their name pictures, too.
