Selkie 11" x 14"
Selkie 11" x 14"
Handcrafted linocut print inspired by the mythic tale of the Selkie—part woman, part seal—who reclaims her stolen pelt and returns to the sea. Born of Irish, Icelandic, and Scottish shores, this story carries the salt-soaked wisdom of what it means to lose yourself, and the quiet power of finding your way back. A piece for those drawn to the deep, to memory, to the magic of becoming whole again.
