Children of Lir

This is a piece for Blue Angel Publishing specifically for my upcoming "Faerytale Oracle" deck with author Lucy Cavendish. Specifically, it illustrates the Celtic fairytale "Children of Lir." Kind of a rarity for me - I don't often paint male characters, but in the story a little boy is turned into a swan. It's a very interesting fairytale - check it out! The swan design on the girl's outfit is inspired by a William Morris fabric/wallpaper pattern from the 1800s. This was quite a small painting, but I liked it so much I decided to do a run of full-sized prints of it. This piece debuted and sold at my "Birds and Beasties" show at Eight and Sand Gallery in Seattle. My original acrylic painting. Prints available at http://www.zazzle.com/strangeling * and http://www.strangeling.com
