I may be a bit late to reply to this, but I love this piece. Was just browsing cause I'm on Marc's course and am at the point on the elements of art. ^^ I love the line work in this, especially in how my focus is drawn primarily to the mermay, then the implied line to the woman holding them. The textures have a lot of weight to them but in the right places - making the focus on the two nicely. The volumes and spacing + structure settles nicely, and I love how you implemented the sense of size and scale especially with the values of the foreground
I like how you did the pattern of the scales too, again, don't mind me. I'm just a beginner appreciating good art while simultaneously doing their course work. xD
Don't mind me!
