I like the second one the best. Did you build up the mermaid? Did you make the swirl?

At the moment I'm leaning towards the "original" - it's quite intriguing! Take 1 has the colors that remind me of the sea but I feel it draws attention away from the subject rather than supporting it. Take 2 has a neat feeling of her emerging from the depths, but is a bit busy. The original composite feels joyful and beautifully unique in its simplicity.

To my eye one of the best parts of the original is the amazing colour gradations in the mermaid's hair. The rest of the colouring is pretty good too.
Whatever edit you settle on, try not to lose those colours.
I have a bit of a problem with the centre-most part of the swirl. I think it needs to be softened or something like that, or possibly changed. And I think the circular swirls in #3 should be concentric with the arc of the swirl behind the mermaid.

I have to go with #2, it's everything a mermaid and her habitat should be.

Thank you very much Linda for the comments on all three, do you like this take on 1 any better? I just put the original on top and took the opacity down
