Oooo, pretty. That image, in various sizes and with various color-casts, can be found on Flickr -- search for "vintage mermaid" -- I have also seen it for sale at antique places, try a Google image search for "vintage mermaid" or "mermaid print" -- even Ebay is an excellent source of old images!!!

What a clever way to meet the Saturday challenge! You always make something beautiful and unique.
