Sea monsters

by Weichuen You 2002

Little Callie has a contradictory complex for the sea. She wants to learn swimming badly, but she is terribly afraid of water too. She imagines big sea monsters living down there. If she goes too deep, they will come chase her and devour her.

I like the way that hidden images seem to be lurking in the shades of blue, the depths certainly brings out that fear of the unknown. Thanks for stopping by my blog and for the flattering comments, do visit again!

You can see the monsters and feel them when u swim in open sea. Something horrifying about swimming in the ocean. Never know what might nipple your toes!

Hope she gets over the fear!

Oooh...I love the suggested images within the water...they really show me how much we create our own fears sometimes! Lovely:>

大海嘯後,須然不是親身经歷過,對海也會有恐惧感。但是你畫的海怪還相當可愛。

agree with everyone Miragee, the watery monster is terrific, like too that the figure is so small in the big expanse of water, really nice illustration!
