Mermaid

She has the entire ocean at her command—yet she chooses stillness. Our Mermaid is a quiet reclamation of an ancient myth: she is not the sacrificial figure of folklore, but a woman who knows that to give, she must first keep. No longer does she dissolve into seafoam for love or loyalty. In this version, she sinks into a bath drawn just for her, candles glowing, water warm, soul still.

This artwork is a reimagining of the age-old mermaid tale—where power comes not from serving others but from choosing oneself. Her serenity is radical, her indulgence intentional. It’s a painting about the strength it takes to rest, the courage to pause, and the tenderness of knowing your own needs before anyone else’s.

Rendered in plush colours that mimic dusk and depth, Mermaid invites the viewer to make space for rituals of care and celebration of the self. She’s not waiting for a prince or a purpose—she already has both within her.
