Siren Songs



Edward Burne-Jones, A Sea-nymph , 1881 (thanks to kraftgenie)

I have a thing for mermaids, possibly because one year I drew hundreds of them
 at the insistence of my then-toddler daughter Michelle (DIsney is to blame).
So here is another post about a subject I have already explored there, 
as interpreted by some favorite artists and new discoveries.

 Konstantin Kalinovich (thanks to 50 Watts)



Becca Stadtlander




  


Franco Gentilini



And by the way, this is one of my favorite songs
