Rabbit Paintings & Portraits

Love the new avatar you've picked out, Sandhills! It's beautiful.

Don't worry one single minute about not sending out my painting. I'm not in any rush.

I'm starting to think we should be telling you to take some NutriCal toboost your immunesystem!

Just take it slow and get yourself well.

It's horrible that it's now going around! I honestly thinkthat the germs and viruses this winter have been worse then they'vebeen in a loooooooooong time. The flu had been running rampant, andthen strep, and now there's whooping cough on top of it?! I wish thatthe warmer weather would hurry up and arrive, so then maybe some ofthese cold-weather loving germs would leave.

I have a vote for warm weather because of roadways! I droveto college today on nothing but a sheet of ice! I was scared all theway here afraid when I had to even tap my breaks. I'm starting to hatewinter after this winter weather we've had!

Also put my vote in for warm weather for illness reasons!

Thanks so much, Dr. Peter
I'm glad that you're happy with the Faye portrait. She IS a lovelyrabbit, so of course any portrait of her would have to turn out fine.

I also have to apologize because I realized I wrote your user name downwrong in a previous post in this thread..... I'm so scatter brainedlately, that I guess I'll just use that as my excuse! I did go back andedit it, thank goodness. We dont want people to think there's twodifferent 'Dr. Peter'(s) on the board.

Blueyes, you are way too much!!! From what I've seen I'm sure that youcould draw anything you wanted to! I think you are way to humble andmodest about your talent.... Your sketches are unbelievable! Mydaughter totally agreed with me, too!

It would be no trouble to do a portrait of Fudge.... I'm just slowly(but surely!) making my way down the list. I would have had quite a fewmore portraits done than I do currently, but have felt like i've beenslacking off due to feeling icky.

Thanks so much for all your kind compliments on the paintings. I willkeep posting the paintings as I get them finished, and I will revamp mylist, and see where I stand with requests......

Thank you so much, RebeccaUK..... Your sweet words have brightened mymorning! I would be more then happy to do a commissioned piece ofBenjamin and Twinkle.

I feel bad because I know there's so many people waiting for their ownpaintings to be done, and I feel like i'm just creeping along at asnail's pace..... I am still going down the list in order, so hopefullysoon I'll have everyone's bunny portraits done.

I told my daughter thanks..... she said "what for?" and then i told herabout her complimenting your sketches. It's so funny.... we are suchhuge Beatles fans, and she knew right away who your John Lennon sketchwas of.... and she's only 9!
That's got to say a lot about your artwork. The sketches are absolutely stunning!

I dont know why a lot of artists are so critical of their own work. Ithink it's because we notice all the little "imperfections" right awaythat make us unhappy about a piece? I'm not sure what it is, but I doit all the time too.....

Another painting I did (not for a Rabbits Only request.... this one's for my sister who lost her baby bun a few weeks back):



(once again, sorry about the resolution quality.... it's horrible looking!)

beautiful.

Please give your sister my deepest sympathy over the loss of her little buddy.

There's a magical quality to this one. The bunny and the turtle together says it all.
It's absolutely precious.

Thank you for sharing it with us.

Blue Skies........Nothing but bluuue skies from now on.

I've been pretty sick myself recently and missed the new paintings.

Sandhills, your work truly leaves me speechless. You have the mostamazing gift. I look at your paintings and I feel as though I can reachright in and stroke their fur.

Please take of yourself. My heart goes out to you and you poor littlenephew. I've had whooping cough and it's some pretty nasty stuff. Iwill be keeping you and your family in my prayers. I find myselfscrolling through loking at all you've done and...WOW!!!!!

The bunny looks so real, and the turtle.. Wonderwho will win the race. I am sorry your sister lost her bunny at such ayoung age.
