In Scottish and Irish legends, Selkies are mythological beings (the tales tend to centre around females) that changed from seal to human form by shedding their skin. My absolute favourite embodiment of this myth has to be Song of the Sea 💙

I love when a job comes w/ a visual challenge. I recently completed 5 watercolors for that definitely needed some careful thought. This is the first one, depicting a mythological figure called “The Spider”.

I created Shimmirians as tiny, elemental beings that care for & awaken plants.
They remind me of 'Sylphs'- mythological air spirits.
The term originates in the 16th-century works of Paracelsus, who describes sylphs as beings of the air, his elementals of air.

Somebody is very happy!

The Water Nymph was painted by the French artist François Martin-Kavel (1861–1931), who specialized in female portraits, ranging from regular portraits, to mythological women, to Oriental portraits.

This is my tanuki Loki!! He's wild but kind and genuine at heart!
I chose tanuki because of the whole mythological trickster vibe with tanuki yokai; its inexplicable but I take comfort in it.

Art by @\great9star, @\CoffeeFlyArt, and me respectively :)
