Day 1 of #mermay2025 I’m jumping back and forth on my prompt list, I’m using some of the prompts from “the official Mermay” prompt list, because some of the days’ prompts seem really fun. On days I don’t want to participate in their prompt list I’m going to draw mermaids as stones and gems, which is inspired by Steven Universe. The first gem stone I picked was “aquamarine.” Of course I had to draw the actual mermaid character Aquamarine. Such a fun mermaid movie when I was younger. 🩵🧜♀️🩵

I bought this sketchbook just for MerMay because I wanted to be able to carry it with me throughout May.

MerMay is an annual event celebrated by artists globally, where they create mermaid-themed artworks throughout May. Participating in MerMay fosters creativity and helps artists improve their skills through daily challenges. This year, the official prompt list is diverse, offering various subjects that artists can enjoy. Some are interpreting the themes in refreshing ways, such as integrating gemstones into their designs. For example, aquamarine, known for its beautiful blue hues, serves as a great inspiration for mermaid designs. When drawing, consider utilizing different mediums including markers, which are excellent for vibrant colors and details. If you're starting your MerMay journey, remember to keep your sketchbook handy; it’s essential for capturing inspiration on the go. Engage with the community by sharing your work online through trending hashtags like #MerMay, #artprocess, and #markerart. This way, you can connect with fellow artists and gain valuable feedback, enhancing your creative output. Overall, MerMay provides a wonderful opportunity to unlock your artistic potential and celebrate the enchanting world of mermaids.
