Fearless Friday, Bunny Ears

Let’s have a little bunny fun today!

This bunny is shy and is hiding behind some pretty flowers

The flowers are just a combination of curved strokes

in various shades of pink and yellow

The strokes get smaller and darker in the center of the flower

Then they get bigger and lighter towards the flowers edges

Once the blooms are established paint the bunny ears

with long light gray or soft brown strokes

I painted one ear with the top flopping down

Once the ears were in place I went back and added leaves

Paint the inside of the ears with light pink

I added a few more sprigs of green to the flowers

and went over the blooms with a large wet brush

to blend out the white areas inside the blooms

I darkened the ears just a little with more gray

When the paint was dry,

I used a .01 fine liner and added little strokes on the ears

to indicate fur for a finishing touch
