Daughter?? :lol:

(the painting is most certainly Lovecraftian in nature, though these hydrae are more like the actual ocean sort, not so much a female Dagon or deep one)

Amazing! You depicted them quite peaceful, but i wouldn't like to touch them at all.

Thanks! I feel like good/evil is pretty subjective with monsters depending on your perspective, so I appreciate that you see the peaceful nature in them. I wouldn't touch them either without greater understanding of them, much like any wild creature.

Really like the creatures themselves, utterly uncanny.

Thank you! :) I tried to make them seem like an ancient relative of the kind we know today... but with a strange taint of course. ;)

I am not sure what the Mythos writers intended. Good work all the same.
