she's smiling at her first baggy clothes, I would guess.Β the sealskin was always form-fitting, I imagine.Β
even knowing how most Selkie tales end, this makes me have hope for these two here.
bravo on making this image (and its related images) so finely.

If this wasn't the traditional telling of the Selkie mythos...
"Dear...um...I should have told you my skin was not to be washed with the whites. A lot more than colors may bleed over. You might not want to put your shirts on for the next seven days..."

This is great, is it a one off or a series or a take on something? Well, it's lovely nonetheless, and I heard painting can be a bitch so kudos to you.

I like it, the soft colours and all, but I can't help but notice that the man looks kinda like that guy from Tin-Tin.

I'm wearing an Aran sweater just like his - so cozy
This series is really beautiful, what made you choose to do a Selkie story?

Thanks so much! I know, it's based off a sweater that my giant cousin wears that makes him look like a cozy hibernating bear.
I've always been really into selkie mythology, and this particular story (lonely hermit discovers animal-lady bride and shit goes down) has some hold on me that I can't quite figure out...maybe I will once I finish telling the story?
Thanks for your support!

I love the tree-bark-like design of the man's sweater. It looks so cozy for living by the sea

Oh by the way, I'm not sure if it is meant to be made this way, but the two seems to be friends rather than lovers in my perspective, which is very hard to do so.

I haven't got a clue of the whole story, but you had just became my favorite artist so far. By the way, this is just awesome... did you use computer?
