[Text by lar3ry gensch] "Jodi Benson as Mermaid" (jodimer.gif, 583x766x2, 9577 bytes) is the fifty-third in a continuing series of fine Disney fanart drawings by Bob Ito . You may wish to save this description in a separate file for future reference. Bob has cast a few Disney characters as mermaids in the past, including Belle (Ito Galleries #2) and Jasmine (Ito Galleries #52). Here we see the voice of The Little Mermaid, the talented Jodi Benson, sitting on a rock somewhere out at sea. Bob Ito reports that this was his first try at drawing a non-toon in years. From the looks of things, I would say that this is an image that will appeal to all the Jodi Benson, Little Mermaid, and Bob Ito fans out there in net.land! Bob Ito's fanart drawings have a HOME page on the World Wide Web. Check out http://www.tiac.net/users/lar3ry/Ito-ink.html to see the entire collection.
