‘A Mermaid’s Tale’ is an animation by my brother Luke and his girlfriend Sophie Merry. It is both his first animation- as well as their first collaboration together- and it has turned out rather beautiful if I may say so myself! 

(A lot of the imagery used originates from old Victorian novels I helped to source, so I’m also posting this here incase some of you folks might enjoy it too!)

“a humument” by tom phillips (1970)

A Humument: A treated Victorian novel is an altered book by British artist Tom Phillips, first published in 1970. It is a piece of art created over W H Mallock’s 1892 novel A Human Document whose title results from the partial deletion of the original title: A Human document.
Phillips drew, painted, and collaged over the pages, while leaving some of the original text to show through. The final product was a new story with a new protagonist named Bill Toge, whose name appears only when the word “together” or “altogether” appears in Mallock’s original text (…) (wikipedia)
