This 2-page spread was many days in the making. Last week I was fooling around with my gel-plate and I got this nice green colour. Then I had some blue on the roller and applied it to the page too. I moved on to other pages in my sketchbook.
I found a piece of paper with some more of that green paint that I had rolled off. I had the bunny rabbit in my book and like the image enough to make a cut out of it on this pink gel-plate print.
The story goes like this: Flossie was nervous about being so exposed on the front lawn but couldn’t help herself; the tender spring grass tasted so sweet.
Our wild brown bunnies here prefer clover but I decided to make the story fit. So I’m thinking about spring even though it was -32C with the windchill yesterday and today it is a balmy 1C under another cloudy day. I’m afraid, springlike days are months away.
