Description
For bunny lovers! Oil paintings of tulips, butterflies, wild roses, and rabbits © Nancy Lee Moran
The rabbits are Holland Lops and Dutch rabbits. Wee fluff balls with big feet, the babies are sleepy and still - until suddenly dashing to and fro.
I find the baby ears to be endearing and funny. Some ears aren't yet fully down (lops) or up (Dutch). Some ears are called "airplane ears" or "helicopter ears" at this stage.
I used my own photos of rabbits and flowers as references for the paintings. In April 2014, Samantha Chadwick let me take photos of the adorable bunnies that she raises, then only three weeks old, of Holland Lop and Dutch varieties.
Mourning-cloak butterflies are hardy, hibernating as adults, remaining all winter under the loose bark of trees and in hollow logs. When daffodils bloom, they use their dark wings as solar collectors to raise their body temperatures, which allows them to fly on chilly spring days. For food, they rely on spring flowers, like dandelions and maple sap.
Names for the light background-color are beach sand, creamy beige, eggshell, light beige, linen, pecan, and vanilla.
Names of the stripe color are dusty pink, peach blossom, salmon pink, and strawberry.
