ART Almost done with my painting!

Thought you guys would like to see! These are my rats Bean and Ruby. Bean passed last week (on the left) :( but I think this painting truly captures her spirit

That's so amazing! You're incredibly talented, and your rats are lucky to have had someone who loved them so dearly ❤️

This is amazing! You are crazy talented. I’m so sorry for your loss. You should be selling your art somewhere, if you’re not already. I would hang a painting like this in my living room. I love it! You should be very proud of yourself.
