    The pose you're talking abut is one of those classic pinup poses. Searching for Fur Coat Pinup will get you what you're looking for, and a good bit of stuff that you aren't. No links 'cause NSFW and all that.

    Just thought someone might like this, too.(At least if you like this type of myth and are into classical animated movies as I am) There's an animated movie called Song of the Sea from, I guess, Ireland which is losely woven around the selkie myth, which I found absolutely endearing. The score's pretty sweet, too 🥰

    I've seen descriptions where they say selkies can assume the shape of a horse with a long'hair' and invite people on going on their back and they they drown people by jumping with them on their back into the water drowning them. It was interesting
    PS. I meant Kelpie it's a different creature but I love it

    Anne McCaffery is an Irish author, she is most famous for her Dragon books but she has a series based on a sentient planet , “The powers that be” “Power Lines” There is a selkie character in those stories! You might give her a look see. . . I hope anyone else who might be interested go have a great read! Oh when I was in college one of my instructors had us put our watercolor boards into a convection oven, one with a fan and we would use it to force dry our watercolor paintings! I believe that a measly hairdryer would be a simpler drying method! Do what works! You can do everything you feel is necessary to finish your painting.

    I was born in Newcastle! Well, technically just outside of it in Northumberland. I miss the Northumbrian Coastline. 😊 ❤️ There's actually a lovely channel on here run by a man who dives with some very special seals off the Northumbrian coast. If you're interested, search for 'Ben Burville'.
    She's beautiful, I love the way you gave her a 'Human Seal' face. 😊
    My favourite story about Selkie's is 'Seal Skin, Soul Skin' in a book called 'Women who Run with the Wolves' by Clarissa Pinkola Estés. I highly recommend it. 😊

    So recently OverlySarcasticProductions did a compilation of animal bride stories, one such story was of a selkie. If you want to learn more about them you can go there. Mind you the stories are shortened as Red and blue tend to do summaries which does a good job of introducing topics to people and get them interested in doing their own research.

    Last year a seal got so close to me while I was swimming in the sea. Maybe a 100 meters away. Probably because I was making a lot of noise at my dog trying to get him into the water. I was kinda scared though, cuz I didn't know if they were harmless or not.
