Bramble Bunny

"Bramble Bunny" (pastel, 7x5 inches) $200 unframed for a limited time, or $265 framed.

This is the second painting I've done of this deep dark bunny. I decided to play up on the dramatic lighting this time. His rich jewel-tone coat reminded me of a blackberry, so I call him Bramble, after Wikipedia's description of a blackberry bush.

Here are some progress shots. I did include a bit of the blue-toned primer to help with the depth...
