I have started MerMay for a several reasons this year.
✨️To warm my creative muscles up, see what I can do within limited time and precise theme
✨️To see how far can I make it
✨️To see if I will be able to accept my result with gratitude instead of constant self judgment.

I am so happy and proud 🎉✨️

May is over, so is MerMay.

19/31
I am very proud of myself, this is the furthest I've ever made in monthly challenges.

Was in mood for something sort of minimalistic yet colorful 🌸

I wish I've had more time for today's theme. Will surely return to it after the challenge ends. Also much more of a challenge was to find the actual drawing back from 2017. I am not happy with the result, but letting it be.

As soon as the idea had appeared in my head I knew the realization is gonna be quite challenging. I'm proud of myself for not running away from difficulties

What if the Heart of the Ocean had been found by one little mermaid?

My first ever try in cubism 💚

Definitely not the most unexpected idea but I enjoyed today's drawing so much.

I'm so late this time because I've had to redraw everything two times yesterday I've got really tired of it. The theme is just so good and I tried to come out with the best version possible.

Quite challenging theme I didn't want to work with at first turned out into great pleasure of working with it. What a turn 💕

Today's work is only a sketch, but loved no less. I was tired and didn't have much time to work on it, but I am still happy with the result ☀️
