Adventuremice: lost at sea
I painted this picture on the day we found the UK death toll to Covid had hit 100,000. I didn't know what to say, but I thought a lot of people must be feeling like this.
I honestly didn't paint it as a commercial thing, but then people were asking about it, and I realised it might make a card to send, either as a sympathy card, or simply something to send someone who's really struggling and needs to know there's someone else who cares. So I have printed up a new pack of cards (here on my shop) and included a few other nautical mice cards, because I don't think people really buy packs of sympathy cards. But if you'd like it, you can get this one in the pack.

Adventuremice Sea Shanty
There's been a sudden huge revival of sea shanties, much to my delight, largely thanks to some videos on TikTok, sparked off by this one of The Wellerman by Scottish postman and musician Nathan Evanss. Of course, the Adventuremice had to jump right in...
Adventure Mice - new cards!
My cards just arrived from Printed.com and they came out very well!
They're available in my shop - sarahmcintyre.bigcartel.com - and you can see enlarged versions of each of you click on the link and scroll down. Keep them, send them to friends, give them as gifts in a pack of five, frame them if you want a little picture for your wall - I hope you like them!

Mouse Princess pic
Here's Mouse Princess fighting the Fearsome Worm. ...Who isn't so fearsome, really, he's just a bit Scarry. (Original available in my shop)
The castle's very influenced by pictures in the 1459 Thott manuscript by Hans Talhoffer.

Mouse Lifeboat
This is not one of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution boats, this is from the Royal Mouse Lifeboat Institution. (But the sale of the original in my shop let me donate £10 to RNLI.)
Kelp Garden Submarine
Another mouse picture, based on a submarine Christmas prezzie from Studio Baby:
