Sweetie Again

"Sweetie Again" (pastel, 8x6 inches)

Painting 10 of my 21-in-31 in March!

A client requested a repeat of this darling bunny. She bought a painting of it for me years ago and her daughters recently begged her for it. So she relented and ordered a new one from me to replace it!

Sweetie is a rescued rabbit belonging to a member of the House Rabbit Society Facebook group. A wonderful group of animal-lovers, they were generous in donating photos to me for painting subjects a couple years ago. 10% of all my sales of bunny paintings painted from HRS donated pics is donated back to the House Rabbit Society.

Here's Sweetie from 2017:

And some progress of the new Sweetie:

Nothing to Do

"Nothing to Do"  (oil, 6x6 inches)  click here to bid

My last oil painting from the past few days. This girl's mood was echoing mine! (sigh) One can almost empathize with the feeling of being caged, in this modern busy life of multiple obligations pulling one away from what one would most like to do (roam free!) (or paint!), and not in control of ones own life as a person (or a cat) would most naturally want to be.
