A touching moment between a mother and child, surrounded by an abstract riot of colorful coral reef, The Cape Verde Mermaid radiates both tenderness and royalty. Originally carved into 3/4” glass, the artist then applied poured resins, gold leaf, and a variety of other media to create the image seen here.
The original resides in the artist’s Private Collection.
