Of Witches and Selchies...

My resolution to continue doing more completed Photoshop paintings continues... This time I decided to play on the theme of the Irish Selchie legend. In the original stories, a Selchie is a seal in the water, but on land she can shed her skin and become a human. This girl is more of a seal-mermaid, but I placed her in Irish waters with some seal friends to keep her safe.

I managed to get a hand-drawn Halloween card done this year! In the past, Halloween witches adorned at least one card each year. I don't know how I've gotten out of the habit, but I wanted to bring it back, so here she is. Care for a sugar cookie and a glass of milk? She may have had one or two cookies without you... oops! They're just so good!
