Mermaid dreams

Watercolour, 21x30cm

” Will you let me in
Or take it away?
Let me choose you again
Tomorrow is a night away
If love’s looking down
On all that we do
We’re a provocative pair
Me and you
Love’s a stranger
Until I see you again ”

– Warhaus in Love’s A Stranger

The little mermaid’s dream was to become an eternal soul, floating in the air. In order to become that, she has to find a human to love to swap her tail against two legs, but love being complicated and full of misunderstandings, she finally loses both her tail and her life. But instead of disappearing into the unknown, because she tried so hard to become an eternal soul, she is rewarded by becoming an eternal spirit of the air, where she can continue to do good in the world.
