To make this image, I used the selection tool and cut out a fish's tail fin. I then copied it and pasted it onto a girl swimming. I rotated, moved, and changed the size of the fin to fit the size of the girl's body.

Mermaids are creatures that are half fish and half female. Mermaids are considered to be usually beautiful despite their fins. Legend says that when a sailor would see a mermaid, they would immediately become attracted and jump off the boat and swim towards the mermaid, but ending up drowning in the process. Some cultures say that the mermaids drown the sailors and suck the life out of them. The word, mermaid, consists of mer which means sea. And maid, which means female. The earliest mentions of mermaids date back to five thousand years ago, during the Mesopotamian cultures. Other cultures that recognized the mermaid is the Assyrians, Greeks, Arabians, Persians, etc.
