Wistful and beautiful. I am fascinated by the details and I love the translucent fins on her tail.

may I ask what kind of style of this drawing is called??

This is quite inspiring. It's from this that I've determined how to achieve the separation between figure and ground effect.
Good work!I hope this makes it to the book!

The attention to detail and the constancy of line is exquisite; it is simply beautiful. It reminds me of the work of 1920's illustrator Arthur Rackham. Please do more with pen-and-ink.

I love A. Rackham's work, is one of my favourite illustrators, ever! Thank you for your wonderful comment!

Bellissima!Ho sempre apprezzato in questi anni il tuo modo di fare i contorni prima molto netti e scuri,e poi molto tenui e meno invasivi,in linea con l'evoluzione piΓΉ illustrativa e meno fumettistica del tuo modo di colorare...ma mi sono sempre chiesta come sarebbe stato un tuo lavoro di sola inchiostratura,e devo dire che Γ¨ magistrale,come al solito

I think this is wonderful work. I admire your technique all around. I was wondering: For this piece what kind of brush did you use? Or is it some sort of calligraffy pen?

I used a calligraphy pen, not very good at using brushes!

Me neither, thank you for the tip, I'll be trying that out in the future.

The inking is well done and the face exppression is so...I can't describe it but overall this is great.

Natalia, this is really pleasing. Moves the eye around with a variety of texture and design. It's a shame that we don't see more of this pen and ink work but I know how busy you are.

I don't think I've ever seen you work with just black and white before, but this is really stunning!
