Bunny

5 x 7 oil on canvas.

This bunny is part of a project I'm working on that is also stretching me. Animals are not my usual forte so it's being a challenge to try to capture the image. 5 x 7 is also a little smaller than my usual so smaller details are being a new experience. This was also my first time to create a "frame" around an object. While the photo appears my frame is a bit off, in the original painting, it is even all around. It's being a fun project, and I'm looking forward to rest of the paintings in it. This is #2 of 7.

About Me

My original love was the performing arts. I grew up dancing, and it was my dream to be a professional ballet dancer. That was not to be so I turned to other forms of creativity. It's only been within the past few years that I discovered painting. I'd forgotten how much I loved drawing as a child. Maybe this is a passion re-awakened! I'm a self-taught artist and always looking to learn new techniques. One of the things I've always classified myself as is a "perpetual student". I love learning, and I love experimenting with new techniques. For me, this is one of the best parts of art; experiencing new things is more important to me than the finished piece. So you never know what I'll end up with. Hope you'll enjoy the experience too!
