Shrew train
For part of Shannon and BJ's wedding present, I painted them a watercolor. At first, I was planning on painting a landscape of a beautiful lake scene with blue skies and fall colors on the trees. However, as I started painting, it looked really ugly (I guess I just can't handle landscapes) and I had to destroy it. So, instead of a landscape, I painted a cute scene involving a shrew mama and her babies. This is typical behavior for shrews so that they stay together and the babies don't get lost. They will even hold on when you pick the mother up off the ground! I like how this painting turned out and even though it took a while -- happy wedding Shannon and BJ!
