Description
My friend Autumn (~carcadann ) had some great advice when I mentioned I wanted to put a rat in my picture. She said "Don't do a rat, because then people think "ewww, disease." Do a mouse, so people think "awww, disease!"
This took 3 days and was one of the most complex paintings I've ever attempted. I almost never do interiors so I thought I would try to redo [link] - the character in that painting was the basis for Emme Anders, my plot device from Thorns.
See if you can spot the hidden details

You know what I like most here? The rat. 
I like how the girl isn't scared of the rat (Or has she simple not noticed it yet?)

SCARY DUDE IN THE CORNER 
Love her facial expression. And the colouring, especially the details in the wood and the texture hints you've added to the sacks of foody things. And yeah, I love the dude in the corner

Wow, I was just going to say this was a cool picture, until I saw it full-sized and saw the guy standing in the shadows. Still a very good drawing, but now it's kind of creepy, too.
I like it. Great job.
