Description
Tried something a bit different and kept my paints clean for once.

"Ihtiriekko" is a type of ghost from Finnish mythology. It's basically the spirit of a murdered child that takes the form of a willow ptarmigan and screams for its mother until it's buried properly.

This is the second time I've painted this ghost, and I still want to try one more time. Might do a more realistic version with oils at some point. We'll see.

Acrylic on paper.
