You can see a full slide show WIP here.

Below is a photograph giving you a sense of my miniature painting's size.


I think Debbie (Houdini's special person who rescued and rehabilitated him) will be pleased with this little portrait. As I mentioned before, I chose to place Houdini in a patch of Dandelions because both field mice and Dandelions are often misunderstood. Both are sometimes considered pests, but just remember that as Dandelions are only weeds when they are in the wrong place, so are little mice. Its only when little field mice venture where they are not welcome that they become pests. I know Houdini is out there in the woods, happy and healthy. Perhaps he even has some memory of the gentle human hands that carefully bottle fed him and nurtured him until her was old enough to live out his life in the wild. Thanks again Debbie!

Enjoy!
