          @jody Welcome to the forums! Your mouse is cute, even if it is dead. 😞
          I really like the way you framed it with the plants.

                Great job everyone! I'm afraid the end of the school year sucked my time away like the machine in the Princess Bride, so I won't be able to enter this month. But I love seeing everyone else's work.

                  @rhirsch Congratulations on being done with the school year. (Hopefully, you didn't lose more than one year of your life! Ha, ha!)

                  @fauxtoddgraphy Thanks for starting up our FauxContest!

                            @jody I really like this piece. It's framed really well and the values work great. Just a thought, but it would be interesting to see how the piece would be interpreted if the outline of the mouse/rat was taken away and you used the plants to silhouette it's shape, kind of like an optical illusion.

                                @gary-wilkinson Thanks fore the complement and for the feedback (I wasn’t sure what kind of reaction I’d get with this group). What a cool idea you suggested. Do you think it would help with my storytelling? A good deal of my work is about life from death ( i.e. rebirth, circle of life). So I was thinking of adding a sequence of images of the animal gradually decomposing and being replaced by more plants.
