Description
The Pooka , or in Irish Puca, (goblin) is a phantom fairy creature that features in Celtic folklore and fairytales of Ireland.Often thought of as an animal spirit, some accounts believe it gets its name from Poc, meaning he-goat in Irish. In fact Pooka is a changeling, and can take animal or human form; like a horse, donkey, cat, dog, bull, young man or even a voluptuous young woman. The animal Pooka is usually jet black with fiery golden or red eyes.
Pooka was thought to be either helpful or menacing. It has been known to help farmers for example, but it can also wreak havoc. Generally however, an encounter with Pooka is not considered propitious, as this fairy creature is a portent of oncoming doom. Known for its cunning and wile as well as lies and deception, Pooka’s archetype is trickster.I wanted to draw Janet as a magical creature, and I immediately thought about the Pooka
I know it turned out more like a satyr, but I wanted to give it both human and animal form!
...I think she's kinda cute ...and look at that mischievous grin ~
Sorry if the watermark ruins it, but I found my character used by many people who didn't bother crediting me. _________________________________________________________________________
