Small Pet portraits
Hamsters, guinea pigs, rats, gerbils, ferrets and chinchillas pack enormous personality into very small bodies. Their portraits should be every bit as grand as the dog's.
Royal Oil is a comic masterpiece on a guinea pig, Storybook gives hamsters the adventure they dream of, and Soft Wash captures the softness of a chinchilla's coat.
