Description Hello and happy wednesday!

This is my contribution for mermay! At the moment I'm not very much into mermaids so I decided to draw a Selkie. Selkies are mythological creatures from folklore: usually they live in the sea as seals but they can take out their skin and become women! I'm very fascinated bu them!

Here I wanted to experiment with colours, I used a green/yellow that isn't very usual for me! Hope you like it!

I think, Selkies are too underrated, so it's amazing you painted one!
Looks gorgeous, also, on my opinion they fit perfectly into mermay!
