A Clochán - something of a beehive hut. hill ranging hermit or cloistered creature may stow away in here for long times, lost in the shifting symbols of an ancient book that never ends.

Here is the little Kukeri inspired shepherd friend 🪴 It is very rare for him to wander in from the hills ⛰️

Oof, got a lot of wonderful quality prints made today. Looking forward to listing and releasing them 🔥

I’m thinking to do so through an Etsy to take advantage of its own organic search and such.
