Rabbits are such strange beings. It is wonderful to see the symbology of this animal through out your work.

Wicked! I love the texture of the homemade paper, and the fact you incorporated timothy hay into the paper just makes it that much cooler.

GTT-ART [2010-04-07 23:34:55 +0000 UTC]

The texture reminds me of some kind of animal skin. It looks organic and suits the image. But how is it to work on?
Great work by the way

larkin-art In reply to GTT-ART [2010-04-08 01:11:05 +0000 UTC]

yeah, it does look a little rawhide-ish.
it's a little tough for pen and ink (which this mostly is) I had to lay down a layer of acrylic gel before inking it so it would hold together (learned that trick the hard way).
thanks, man!
