Mixed media on canvas

I was inspired to make this mm collage while visiting one of the fellow blogger I follow. She makes beautiful ATC's and recently made some using a mermaid/sea theme. (see artfullymusing.blogspot.com). I used a underwater photograph for the background and photoshoped the mermaid onto it. After printing, I used a image transfer technique to transfer thewhole thing  to the canvas. I painted over some of the areas with acrylic paint to hide little imperfections in the transfer. Then embellished with some dimensional embellishments. This will go to a friend as one of her birthday gifts.
