These Hunt Slonem paintings appear here in Bunnies for the first time as a separate collection. A treasure trove of enchanting paintings, equally Pop Art and Fine Art, in color and black and white. As Bruce Helander writes in his introduction to this book, “Perhaps the rabbits that populated the family garden in Kittery, Maine, made their mark on the young Hunt Slonem and are now evident throughout his illustrious career. [...] The use of the rabbit as a theme has its own distinct and joyful charm. [...] Slonem draws on the gentle, independent nature of rabbits, usually painting them one at a time to create a portrait with large ears and unruly whiskers. It is a gallery of gentle, compassionate portraits, created very quickly and with a strong hand, but which, despite their precision, remain intentionally abstract.” » Bunnies is a unique collection of paintings by an internationally renowned artist that is a remarkable ode to one of the most beloved and mythical creatures in the animal world, ready to bring happiness to every person who lays eyes on it.
