Rat Bones and Roses


This is one of my newest and most popular designs. I call it, oh so originally, "Rat Bones and Roses."

This design was inspired by a project I partook after my last pet rat, Cordelia, passed away last year. I decided, after much soul searching, that I would articulate her skeleton. And I did, which is another story.

This image is not actually Cordelia, but it's definately a fellow rattus norvegicus and I added the roses because I truly love ratties. I also think skeletons are beautiful. This image is not about being grusome, but about the timelessness of love. Although if you like it because it's morbid, that's cool too. ;)
