Description A very small watercolour painting (approx 8.5cm x 8.5cm - you're probably viewing it larger than real life) with some white ink for highlights. I had made a tiny little mount & window for it, but the paintings a little too big so I’ll make another one. I’m going to be making a little frame as well.

This is such a unique idea! I really like the variety of colours too.

Thank you! There's quite a lot of folklore about moon rabbits & hares, and I wanted to do my own version

Lovely job, looks like a sculpture at first. Now I need to figure out - what would a moonhare do? Sounds like the start of an interesting Native American legend . . .Β

Thank you! There's quite a lot a myth and folklore about moon gazing hares, often to do with fertility. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moon_rab… ; A Native American legend would be lovely though...
