OC - Aoi Nanami - Mermaid

ok, here is the story with this little picture.....<br />
<br />
do ya no how almost every anime has only white skinned people in it? well, i thought that since i am white, i never think about coloring the skin an african american brownish, so i considered myself racist in my drawings......and whats a better way then to make this cute little mermaid an african american mermaid? i think it turned out pretty good too!<br />
<br />
i also decided to make her an original character(OC) since she is just there, ya no?<br />
