Carved Basswood Cat and Mouse

My cousin, Liz, passed away and we went up North for her funeral. It was rather cold at our cabin this weekend so this is the fruit of a captive artist.

The mouse hangs from the cat's mouth by a strip of leather and the whiskers are white covered wire. The finish is acrylic paint that was sanded to mimic wear.
