Mermaid folklore is something that fascinates me. But the image of 'the mermaid' as described in European fairytales, classical art and Disney seems pretty 'by the book': Half human, half fish, split just beneath the belly button.

What about mermaids that break the rules? 1/

28: Velveteen Rabbit - As a kid, I never read or had read to me any fairytales, and I didn't grow up with Disney stuff either, so a lot of kids stories are new to me. But I've been reading a lot of them this year, and they're quite interesting! My favourite is easily this one!

Troll paintings from this week.

I was lucky that my mom exposed me to lots of folklore, fairytales, and artists when I was a kid. As a young adult, it was always bubbling in the background. Now as I work on my own stories, I see how much came from those early experiences.

In fairytales, creatures of every kind are as old as literature itself. Animals used in fables & beasts in fairytales are found in ancient Egypt, Greece, India & Aesop. Animals can symbolize the natural world, a deity or sacred entity in various manifestations.

The Wolf and Witch; an early nordic comic that follows Ingrid, a warrior of Hel, as she's mysteriously found herself in the world above once more. Magic, mythology, and mash up of old fairytales, as well as a wide range of LGBTQ characters await you!

Thank you for this! I really appreciate artists using their platform to help other artists :)
My name is Kyla and I'm an illustator who loves fairytales, ghost stories, and dreams. Most of my stuff is traditional, and I LOVE ink! More recently, I've also gotten into comics!

Hi! I'm Lise from Norway. I like to do linocut prints and digital paintings. I work with mixing fairytales, myths and legends with psychology. And also... I have a weak spot for RPG characters.
