What do you think he wishes for? The little mouse looks up as a falling star shoots across the Milky Way. He has his dreams, his goals, can they come true? Can his wish on the falling star become reality?

This is another miniature I created. I wanted to do the Milky Way and night sky with watercolor and it was most challenging part of the piece. After a few trial and errors, I was able to come up with the way it looks in the picture's sky. Not bad for a first attempt. I was suprised that it uses the same technique as it does to make clouds in a watercolor painting. I am excited to say that I wil try another night scene like this again in later pieces.

I'm opening up critiques on this, please feel free to critique and give me advice!
