Rats, like Snakes, are generally misunderstood from a Chinese cultural point of view. For information on Rat personality traits, take a look at the Chinese Zodiac Rat page on the Travel China site.
2019-09 Claire demonstrating a rat at the UoL Botanic Gardens
Back of the Rat - Claire Seaton 2020
Back in September of 2019 we had a great time painting rats in the University of Leicester(UoL) Botanic gardens for an LCBPG workshop. This was in preparation for the 2020 Year of the Rat. To the left is Claire demonstrating how to paint a big friendly rat…
As part of this session we invited everyone who joined us to contribute to a 'Group Rat'. Well done to everyone who took part and painted a mouse, rat or squirrel (tree rat). They look an interesting bunch and it's just a question of who has their eye on whom. We trust that you like the finished painting:

You may wish to include the Calligraphy for Rat (shǔ) in your painting. This can be found on our Zodiac Animals Calligraphy page.
When the Year of the Rat completed in February 2021, we bid a fond farewell to it with Claire's painting on the left. We will, of course, add more about Rats in due course...
