Time for some work

This reminds me why I don't use color pencils.  New Jess from Old Jess, 22" x 30" color pencil and watercolor wash.

Get more paint on this and do something with these dolphins.

Bunn-evolution

From the start two years ago until now...(I am allergic to stuffed animals)

Lost Bunnies

This first set of bunnies (actually two separate canvases) began as a lark.  I was goofing around trying to justify taking this beat up old stuffed animal from my nephew.  I figured the only way I could really justify behavior like that would be to paint of draw this old rabbit.  The paintings were just quirky enough that I had to do more with the subject.  So, as "bunny" was sitting in the studio,on a chair with some cloth hanging over it...

Cloth Bunny

I started cloth bunny right before the Bau Movement group show and I was tired of playing with text and stencils and I was feeling the need to paint again.  But then I had three bunny paintings.

Beach Bunny

This is a 30" x 44" charcoal and inkwash drawing loosely based  on some family members at the Jersey shore. The Jersey shore just happens to be the place where Smitty was a life guard.

Bunny und Wehrmacht- This needs no explanation.

Study for PzKpfb II (Panzerkampfbunny)

No explanations for the next pieces either.  Yes, the model "Tiger" tank and P38 are just laying around in my studio.
