Ondine, Harmony & Golden Bamboo

Hi Everyone, I know it has been a while, but this has been one busy summer. I am not complaining, just explaining. I have 3 new creations here. I just posted them all together. I do not want to start my day with the ususal frustration I have trying to get pictures to do what I want them to do.


The first picture is a mermaid which I painted with mica. I decided to call her Ondine, which is the name of a mythical water sprite. It is also the name of a perfume I loved many years ago.

The second picture I call Harmony. I was thinking of calling it Made for Each Other, but Harmony won out. I made it in black and white because it reminded me of the yin yang symbol.

The third is Golden Bamboo, another soap hand painted with mica. You can't see it too much, but the soap itself has a subtle shimmer of gold. I am going to do one in pearl white soap as well. But this is what I have ready for today.

Thanks for taking a look. Have a wonderful week.

Marie
