Made for a Mini Contest on :icondigital-art-fantasy:


Selkies are creatures from the Scottish mythology. they look like seals but can strip off that skin and look like beautiful girls beneath.
if a human finds the abandoned skin while the selkie walks around in her human form, he can hide it from her and force the selkie to marry him, but that's definitely no good way to start a relationship.

Oh wow. This is so beautiful. I love the shading, her pose, and the way her seal skin is staring straight through you.

thank you! I guess selkies are still not as known as mermaids and other creatures from the sea.

yes, there are. as far as I know, they are really ugly and not very nice. so I guess nobody would steal their skins. :)
