Turquoise Tail
.
The story, Turquoise Tail is about a glimpse of a myth that I grew up loving and imagined being. Like most young girls, mermaids were magical, beautiful creatures you always pretended to be and wanted to see.
.
As a child, I spent summers with my family exploring the West Coast on my father's sailboat. A lifetime of memories and adventures have been shared due to my love of the water and the islands around the Salish Sea.

🩵🌊Have you ever let your toes sink into the cool embrace of a different ocean, one whose waves speak a language unfamiliar yet inviting? The waters feel both foreign and familiar, stirring something deep within you. It’s an ocean you never thought to wade into, its currents calling softly, coaxing you to step beyond the comfort of the shores you’ve always known. There’s a magic in that first touch, as if the sea itself whispers of new journeys, unknown possibilities, and the beauty of exploring what once felt distant.🌊🩵

This summer I finally got back to the other side of Canada after 10 years. The east coast is sooo different from the Pacific, and Nova Scotia is one of the greatest provinces to visit if you love the water. With a coastline of approximately 7500km there is soooo much to explore! 🩵

Whales, the largest creatures on Earth, have always captivated the human imagination. Despite being studied for centuries, there are still many mysteries surrounding these majestic animals. Their complex communication, migration patterns, and social behaviors are still not fully understood. Additionally, the decline of many whale species due to human factors such as whaling and pollution adds to the mystery and urgency of understanding these creatures before it's too late.🐋

To me, the sound of waves washing on the shore is more than just a peaceful background noise. It represents the constant ebb and flow of life, a reminder that change is inevitable and that we must learn to adapt and go with the flow. It also brings a sense of relaxation and tranquility, allowing me to disconnect from the chaos of daily life and find inner peace.

Picked him for her own,
Pressed her body to his body,
Laughed; and plunging down
Forgot in cruel happiness
That even lovers drown.”

✨The story, Turquoise Tail is about a glimpse of a myth that I grew up loving and imagined being. Like most young girls, mermaids were magical, beautiful creatures you always pretended to be and wanted to see.

🧜🏼‍♀️As a child, Tessa Van Poele spent summers with her family exploring the West Coast on her father’s sailboat. A lifetime of memories and adventures have been shared due to her love of the water and the islands around the Salish Sea.
