Sleeping Buddies Original Oil Painting

After doing Praying Polar Bear I got an idea to do a baby polar bear with a little mouse cuddled up to him.  So I turned the adult polar bear into a cub with my magic paint brush...ok, it's not magic, just thought it sounded good.  added a mouse and there we have Sleeping Buddies aceo.  Oil on card stock. 
Soon to be listed in my etsy shop.
