I had bought a load of cheap glassless frames from Ikea with intentions of painting to frames to sell. Instead I decided to make them all into little 2dee shadow boxes in hopes of selling them at the upcoming craftfairs. I did 3 with Fox Nap ones and one of the Forest Cat. They all ended up selling so I did 2 more fox Naps, 2 more Forest Cats and then did 2 Forest owls.

Finger Perch ... 2dee art
I am not sure what made me decide to do one of these shadow type boxes, I must have seen one somewhere and made a mental note somewhere. I think it turned out really well.
Decided to do 2 different coaster designs for these ones as well because I thought the background might be too overpowering when not 2 dimensional like the original.
A Chase.. Mirror and coasters
When I was smaller than I am now, my Nana had this pop-up Beatrix Potter book and one of the illustrations was an aerial view of foxes chasing Jemimah Puddleduck(?) in a circle. This image always stuck out in my mind and apparently my little brother's as well, because as soon as he saw it he immediately said it reminded him of the same thing.
I painted these onto a little wood frame.
Then thought they would be really cool as circular coasters.
So did a bit a photoshop magic with the help of mr. tom, and printed these up.
The end.
