Year of the Rat by skogul

Fri, 04 Jan 2008 13:15:58 -0000

2008 is the year of the rat, and I was born under that sign, so I thought it appropriate to make my first piece of this year related to that in some way. It's a simple drawing of a rat peering at two Japanese mon coins, which symbolize wealth and prosperity.
