Title:From the Sea / Artist: Jessica Tremp / Model: Jo O’Brien THE MERMAID A mermaid found a swimming lad, / Picked him for her own, / Pressed her body to his body, / Laughed; and plunging down / Forgot in cruel happiness / That even lovers drown. William Butler Yeats a few of my favourite things come together…mystery, the sea, earthy colours and textures and an overall sense of whimsicality and melancholy

Watercolor on board Ive always liked mermaids and used to peer into the waves hoping Id see one gliding inside the curl or playing with the sea lions. The kelp beds off the northern Californai coast are dense and home to all sorts of creatures, and any self respecting mermaid is going to adorn herself with the abundant shells and seaweeds flourishing in her environment. Mermaids are often depicted as sensual sirens who look as if they havn’t a thought in their beautiful heads other than luring innocent sailors to their deaths. Just as mortals have many natures, so do the seafolk. This painting is of one such mermaid who has better things to do then lay about on the rocks calling out to passing sailors. She has a sense of wonder and amazement because all around her the sea is alive with beauty. She loves her environment and is busy making necklaces and jewelry with abandoned shells and seaweeds (she would never boot a living animal out of its home or take its life for anything so selfish as making a new necklace to impress her freinds with). Below is part of her song, something I wrote to accompany the painting. I am the soft sigh of surf caressing sand. / The fluid, curling wave breaking upon sharp coral. / I am the rhythmic chant of the tides, / my perfume the salt fragrance of damp seaweed and far away lands. Ocean goddess and sea nymph, I am a daughter of the waters. / My world is a place of ever shifting, fluid realities. / I am swelling, invisible currents of sparkling light and mysterious shadow.

This artwork was featured in Live, Love, Dream, Feminine Intent, ImageWriting and The Love Of Eerie and Enchanting Artwork This piece reflects the period of transition in which I currently find myself. It’s the end of the year, and naturally I’m thinking of how much I’ve evolved creatively over the last year. I’ve just completed my first poetry book, which is currently in production, and now I find myself looking “beyond my sight” to see what lies out there waiting to be discovered. Inspired by the song Becoming by Jewel. Unfortunately, I cannot find it anywhere online due to copyright issues, so I can’t provide a link. Created from 2 stock photos and a variety of digital effects.
