Walking over the hill above Bracelet Bay, Mumbles a couple of evenings ago with Husb and small Nephew, we saw lots of wild rabbits quietly munching away. Husb and Nephew stopped for a few minutes to gaze at a young bunny; the little ones don’t seem particularly afraid of people. The Boy tends to copy Husb and their stance was very similar – he’s learning to be a man. So cute. On their left is a sweep of a small tree that’s been sculpted by the wind. Drawn into my A5 cloth-bound sketchbook that I’d prepared with some ripped brown parcel paper, stuch on with Pritt stick. I used Faber Castell Pitt drawing pens in sepia and a touch of black and white conte crayons.

I'm an artist / printmaker / scribbler. I love drawing and all the geeky stuff associated with printmaking, working in a figurative style. I live in Wales with husband and demented cats. And my real name is Rose Davies :D View more posts

So much character with so little drawing..
Thank you – I had to do it quickly – the rabbits soon bounded off
The drawing is good on its own merits, but I loved hearing the backstory of the mirrored stances.
Thanks. He’s very obviously trying to be a little man now. It’s really sweet.
So few lines, so much character 🙂
Thank you – sometimes when you have so little time, you’re forced to focus on the essentials
