This was created from a mummified mouse and bird discovered in the attic. I can’t exactly remember why I did this, perhaps the idea of a dead mouse and bird reminded me of Star-Cross-Lovers... a relationship that was doomed from the start. I painted them in white to give them an angelic presences and hair, to create a feeling of them floating up to heaven... in love.
