A VERY experimental mixed media piece--those are ceramic bathroom tiles glued to the surface. Which took all manner of experimentation to figure out the best way to mark on the tiles and to seal the mark so it wouldn't come off if somebody breathed on it (fluid matte medium dabbed VERY carefully over acrylic PITT pen, then wiped down around the edges so it didn't smear. Much more fiddly than the description makes it sound.)

And then, after all that work, I realized I'd put it all on the panel upside down, so the nail hole in the back was on the bottom. *sigh* So this one would require actual framing, and since the tiles stick out so far, foiling conventional framing, it will probably specifically require one of those front-loaded illusion frames. The best laid plans...

Anyway. I dunno if it really works visually, but I really wanted to try the tile thing.

8x10, prints available at Red Wombat Studio: [link] and the original is available.

Lovely composition! I like the mix of organic shapes and geometry. Lovely, sweet-looking rabbit, too. :)

Very nice, I adore all the colors in the background compared to the rabbit, and the rabbit is sooo cute by the way XD.

I like it. I like it a lot. The way the rabbit's head is turned, and the shape of the ears, and the gorgeous colours... In fact, I love it :D

There is just something that I really really love about this. <3 You have been drawing a lot of rabbits lately. Is there a reason why?

I love how startled it looks, like it's just discovering its tail. "Oh, hey, what the heck is that and how is it attached to me?" I also love the idea of using the ceramic tiles. It's a neat dynamic.

I find your recent experimentation absolutely fascinating; and this piece is of course just absolutely gorgeous independent of all my joy at the cleverness of its construction.
