I adore Celtic Mythology and loved the fact that the story of Cliodhna is fairly unknown. Basically, she was queen of the fairy women and so a Banshee who ran away with a mortal only to have her father return her to Munster on a wave.
I decided to depict the Banshee side of Cliodhna as I feel being taken from her lover by her father would incense her with rage with an underlying sadness. Also, I depicted her three birds in a Celtic style in the waves.
