Description Pencil drawing of a common mouse.

I did this for my exhibition "Wild Looks" that I had in June 2012 - the little mouse has quite a surprised look because of the big, wide-open eyes.
In an earlier stage of the drawing, I had drawn only the pupil, and with the iris still white, the poor mousey didn't look surprised but really *shocked*. Perhaps I'll make a fun pic out of this someday, along the lines of "... you're home already??"

I'm a big mouse fan. Don't know why, but I think they're awesome

Thanks! It looks a bit surprised, or is it watchful? I surely wouldn't chase the little bugger away

Ja, sie sind wie kleine geheime GΓ€ste (allerdings meistens nicht eingeladen ) Ich finde alle Tiere spannend, aber grade bei den Kleinen lohnt sich ein genauer Blick!

Thanks I care about details very much, and since a mouse is small, you have to pay even more attention

Yes, she is - I would *perhaps* even tolerate her in my cellar, but I'm afraid she wouln't do well with the cat :rolleyes:

Thanks! It's been a pleasure to draw it, for the light hairs I used a method I found at Lisandro Pena's Page. He's a great artist, also to find here at DA: [link]

Have a great time
