Selkieby *Wolverat

Traditional Art / Paintings / Fantasy©2006-2012 *Wolverat
Mature Content
There's a Scottish legend about a creature called a Selkie. Selkies are seals who turn into women by shedding their skins. If a man can hide the seal skin from her, she will stay with him. But if she finds the skin she'll put it back on and jump into the sea, never to return.
Acrylic on a 16"X20" canvas.

I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like
a man, standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.
