Don't Be the Bunny
Acrylic, oil pastel and pencil on cradled plywood
24 x 16 in
61 x 40.6 cm
This bunny's tail is too high and the basket is heavy and it's an "interesting" day. The Invisible Man! The game inside the box is Pin the Tail on the Bunny – which reminded me of the Tony Award-winning satirical Broadway musical comedy, Urinetown, and its wonderful Don't Be the Bunny musical number.
The ongoing Super Ply series consists of black and white paintings on bare plywood. I begin with a random hand doodled abstract monotype on the bare wood, then paint with 2 small brushes and my hands. I add details with oil pastels and pencil. I usually work in silence alone in my studio, but some of these have been created live at art events and reflect the mood I sensed in the room. As a process painter, I allow each painting to develop organically so the character and context are not planned at all. Any text fragments - and the title - become clear at the end when the piece resolves itself.
