Mel's Inktober 22 - Snorkeling With Dolphins

Nothing fancy. Just a random girl soaking it up under the sea.

I was never this brave around water and probably never will be; I've always been a little aquaphobic. But I've always enjoyed underwater stuff and I have plenty of characters who soak it up at every possible opportunity. If Hayao Miyazaki's trademark was flying, mine will most likely be swimming.

I do like dolphins, too.

2023 Inktober 16 - Snorkeling Girl

I knew there was going to be a wet picture somewhere. The question was whether it'd be snorkeling, scuba diving, or just plain swimming, and how much of a "silhouette" the wet character would be. 

Some people prefer the ocean because there's a lot more to see down there. Then again, they always recommend you perfect your skills in a pool first, and sometimes the swimmer just likes to relax under the water. There is something soothing about letting the water carry you, with nothing else to occupy your mind.

And now we're more than halfway there already. Jumping jellyfish!
