A Well-Read Rabbit

Study: Mixed Media finished with Oil on Paper 24" x 30"

"Sometimes a painting tells the artist what it wants, and this rabbit did just that! From the moment I sketched him on top of collaged dictionary and historical reference photos, he knew exactly how he wanted to be created. Every mark in this painting was unplanned, following the guidance of one smart bunny. His expression makes me smile and his spirit leaves me wide-eyed."

This is a practice piece (aka: Study) that I did, focused on a specific mixed media painting technique. The surface is heavyweight archival paper and will arrive unframed. For best display results, choose a frame with backing to keep surface flat. Due to the nature of media on paper, you may want to add glass to the frame, but it's not necessary. All paint and varnish are archival, but it's always best not to place artwork in direct sunlight. This piece will look best under warm indoor lighting.
