SciFi and Fantasy Art Rat Rider by Melissa D. Saunders


	I have had rats for several years, and currently have 6 living with me in my apartment. They are very mischevious, and I have always been convinced that they must have been created by the Faeries themselves. That led me to the thought of a Faerie riding on the back of a rat, like a human would a horse, and instructing it on how to make trouble for the humans.

24 Jun 2007	Anne Wipf	Loading... First comment dance Hehe: the contrary of my "Little Red Fairy and the Big Bad Rat"! Nice picture, well done. I love the concept of rat wings. Melissa D. Saunders replies: "Rat wings huh....that might be something to draw in the future. Glad you like it. "
25 Jun 2007	Heather 'Pixy' Lynn	Loading... Oh, cute. I love the faery's expression. Very mischievous! Interesting and unexprected use of the peacock feathers too. Melissa D. Saunders replies: "Yes, partners in crime they are! "
30 Dec 2007	Ceinwen Fang	Loading... I have a rat too I don't think he'd like to let a fairy ride him though... He gets very disgruntled to be so much as picked up! This is a lovely drawing though, full of whimsy. Melissa D. Saunders replies: "My rats love being picked up and given attention. I actually have my hairless sitting on my shoulder right now...and she was on my head a second ago. Silly rat. "
31 Dec 2007	Julie Raymond	Loading... I love this! I have also suspected that rats are of the Fae folk as well... having been owned by many rats over the years (2 at the moment) I have decided that their cheeky mischief is a little TOO uncanny at times if you get my drift. I love the little smirk that this particular rat steed has on her face. Melissa D. Saunders replies: "Thanks! Did you see the faerie rat in this gallery? I think you would like it! "
31 Dec 2007	Ceinwen Fang	Loading... Aww My girls were like that - I've never had a male before, but I think its just him that's anti-social, hehe. Melissa D. Saunders replies: "Male rats aren't quite as adventurous as females. They are more couch potatoes. I've got 12 rats...7 are boys. "
31 Dec 2007	Jolinda tP	Loading... Ah! A rat! and a cute one too I think the rat should be riding the fairy though, instead of the other way around.. Maybe I'll do a painting like that soon! Maybe even today picks up her pencils .. Nice work! I really love the rats wings Melissa D. Saunders replies: "I look forward to seeing that! "
