ARTIST CALL from the deep...
The sea creatures are stirring...mermaid, naiad, siren, sea nymph and merman alike. What enchanting fantasies and creative artworks, these mythical creatures inspire!
These creatures appear in the folklore of many cultures worldwide. They are commonly found in the open ocean but they also swim to freshwater lakes and rivers. Might we spot one off the shores of our own Detroit River?!
Mermaids call out to unsuspecting high seas passengers, sailors, bootleggers, pirates and artists. They are sweet, alluring, beautiful, magical, charming, passionate, hypnotic, spiritual, secretive, vain and seductive.
Sirens are the predators who lure sailors to their deaths--the ones who you picture with spikes, sharp teeth, webbed hands and fierce eyes. They are portrayed as monstrous beasts who have been known to eat humans!
