Mousketeer

mousketeer

A field mouse works his way carefully amongst the thorns of a blackberry bush.

This was a private commission, using colour pencils and pastels on A4 plum-coloured paper. I have to admit that I really struggled with this one; the fur on the mouse and the blackberries themselves proved difficult for me. It took my girlfriend to say, “Just get on with it” to stop me fretting. And I’m really pleased with the result.
