Pam's Bunny III

12x16 Oil on Canvas
by
Cheri Wollenberg

This bunny has white with brown spots. He is a flopped eared rabbit, but his ears have never flopped as they should. Instead they look as if they are airplane wings and he is fixing to fly somewhere. I've painted this little bunny several times. When I painted him this time I was doing a demonstration at an art walk in Rogers, Arkansas.  Of course I painted him from a picture, but after I finished him I had to make a decision of what kind of environment I would place him in. I decided to paint some rolling hills with tree lines in the distance. Thus, Pam's little bunny had a place to roam!  If you are interested in purchasing this little guy and giving him a home, click Bunny.


Footnote:  Pam is one of my painting students and she agreed to bring two of her pet rabbits to class one day because she knew that my grandaughter was going to be at class.  My grandaughter was about 5 yrs old at the time and was afraid of them!!!!  In her defense, they really were big.  I bet we took more than 100 images between the students and myself to get "one" good resource picture for paintings of those little critters.  They are NOT good models (laugh).
