Holiday Mouse

This charming scratchboard illustration features a large mouse, its body extending to the top, bottom, and left edges of the page. The mouse appear to be standing on a slightly concave, snow-like ground. Dressed in winter attire, the mouse wears a snow cap with a pom-pom on top, its ears poking out playfully. The cap’s texture is captured with detailed scratches, which continue on the mouse’s sweater, suggesting a knitted pattern, though the texture stops at its sleeves. Around its neck, a strand of holly or fern with berries blends into the sweater’s design. The mouse’s face, complete with long whiskers and hair etched with fine lines, holds a mischievous smile with its mouth slightly open. Its bright eyes gaze directly at the viewer, inviting a connection with this delightful winter character.
