Monsters and Mermaids

My submission for Emerald City's Dames and Monsters 2012 book.  I'm really happy with how it turned out! : D Hopefully it'll make the cut...

Objects from China:

Yet another awesome find from the Guangzhou's Museum of the Nanyue King; this one is a top decorative piece for an ornamental room screen divider; originally feathers were placed on the top of his head. I absolutely love his smile- some sort of demented Chesire Cat demon god!!
