Hamster and two bunnies. Painted stones.

Hamster and two bunnies. Painted stones., a photo by Alika-Rikki on Flickr.

I started painting this hamster rock long ago. For two or three years it was just orange under-painting and two black eyes - I was busy with illustration for my first children's book. Recently I had an order for a hamster rock portrait and found that old baby. Hamsters have the most funny pink noses! And tiny cute hands.

Two other rocks are adorable lop bunnies. Love to paint them though it takes unusually long for such small rocks.
