Artist's Comments

Homework for an advanced drawing class...we were allowed to choose our subject, and naturally I chose my ratten :) We were supposed to focus on sfumato and I don't know if that's actually what ended up happening here...but I think I got carried away. I guess maybe one might tend to do that when drawing something one is very enthusiastic about. ;)

In any case, there are 3 rats here. Fenn, my little cinnamon satin dumbo, is in the front there and my cinnamon rexy gal, Dune, is behind her lying on top of my variberk Jane, who is being smooshed and showing off her cow spots rather nicely.

very cute. it's good to see that you love your rats so much. many people think they are just dirty, good-for-nothing pests. But they're not. They're great, and really smart too.

Beautiful drawing. I love the amount of detail.

Beautiful! Your passion for your friends is obvious. :D I have to say that they are so cute!!! I've never had a pet rat but I've heard they are excellent pets and very loving. Great job, keep it up!
