Sketch Diary: Mermaid back bend

A quick 5-10 minute sketch in my mini sketch book. I'm liking this one. I think my versions of mermaids are usually more like serpents than fish. Or at least eels. Fish don't really bend the way I like to have my mermaids look.

Another quick sketch while waiting for food one day in my little 4x6 inch sketch book. It's so tiny. I usually sketch on 8.5x11 inch. But switching to a smaller (or larger) sketch book definitely shakes things up. I think less about what's actually visible on the page and more about the composition or what could be going on outside the page.
