Description
Picture I did a little after one of my rats died. Did it with colored pencils on black paper all in one sitting. I think I started it at 11:30 one night and finished it in about a half hour or so. So it was pretty quick but I just had to do something in his memory. I miss the little bugger

Aww, poor little rat. I have two. Both are 2 1/2, I hope they live long. We used to have three, but we found her dead, we didn't know how she died.
Gorgeous drawing

Truly a wonderful picture, a sad, yet beautiful way to remember your pets- I wish I could draw as good as you, your rat, Merry, looked so much like my wonderful rat, Spottie, who passed after his fourth-year birthday... it've been three years now, I still miss him. You draw beautifully, I love how you portayed the cute side of rat, not the ugly side everyone seems to believe in. Wonderful work, very impressive, and sad.

I'm planning on doing a piece of each rat I've owned so that I'll have something to remember them by when they're gone, besides photos. Thinking of doing a watercolor of my Cinder next

Sorry about your loss - it breaks my heart when I hear that a pet died, especially when it's a rodent.

That is beautiful. Very nice job, black paper looks very good with the white parts. And I really like his pose and the lighting.
Sorry I haven't been commenting much lately, too much going on.
