I'll start by saying I'm not a fan of mermaids, but I actually like this piece. I like her position and the detail in the coral and fish.
I think it's a very lusty, romantic, daring piece in some aspects.

There are a couple of things I think need work though, the lighting, I can see where the sun breaches the water but how is the side we see lit up, I think shading is needed a little more here. I like her necklace but I think the glint is facing the wrong way. The last thing I don't really care for is the treasure chest, I get the idea of it but I think the way it was incorporated is not top-notch. It just seems kinda tossed in there for effect and not as a real part of the pieces, focal or otherwise.

I like her hair a lot, I find you're hair techniques blow my mind, I think her hair should be in a different position if she's underwater but I still find it enchanting. Good job and beautiful piece.
