I've been studying Irish mythology and I am obsessed with The Morrigan. An amazing goddess with so many interesting appearances in the myths. One aspect is her ability to shapeshift, which I wanted to capture in this photo composite. Now there are four animals specifically listed in the myths but I left out the eel because I wanted to stay with the triple goddess theme. That eel eyes are weird to mesh with a human face.

And as always full disclosure the human face was made by me through the AI Dreamstudio. I did this because finding a female face in stock photography who isn't smiling and is very young is impossible. I wanted a woman in her thirties with some lines on her face and a serious expression. I had an image in my head of exactly what she would look like. Honestly, it took me over half an hour to get the AI to do what I wanted. In addition, I heavily edited the face beyond what the AI spit out. So it was half an hour for one asset. Someday I need to video myself using AI just to make one asset for a project. LOL The animal photos are free to use stock and the forest photo is my own.

Let me know what you think of this photo composite in the comments. Have you ever read Irish myths? Are you familiar with The Morrigan?

I will be releasing a speed art video of me creating this piece. Once I edit and post it on my YT channel I'll put the link in the comments.
