Nature-Inspired Swirling Illustrations by James R. Eads

Los Angeles based multi-disciplinary artist and illustrator James R. Ead’s stunning illustrations are known for their unique style and technique. Following van Gogh’s signature brushstroke composed of colorful and fast moving brush strokes, Ead’s work reveals a meditative and soothing connection with nature and humanity. Both gentle and powerful, the swirling illustrations contain a surrealist and ethereal touch.

I’m late for mermay but I finished this anyways because I wanted to be done with it. I had this idea in my head and I needed to do something about it.
So you may or may not notice that these ladies are inspired on the mermaids on Disney’s Peter Pan 🙂 Some more than others, of course, I just wanted to go a few steps further with the designs, otherwise it’d have been just a copy and that’s not what I was going after.
I hope you like it!
