Original artwork description:
"Out on a Lamb" - mixed media on reclaimed wood, 18" x 30" x .5". Ready to hang.
Inspired by a video about rabbits hitchhiking on sheep (no, really!) and an artist friend challenging me to paint it. Apparently, these characters were a little put out by posing for this scenario, which they called "a ridiculous stretch of the imagination" despite the video proof. If you've ever argued with a rabbit, you know how impossible they are. And don't get me started on grumpy sheep. But the really interesting thing about this story is that rabbits are considered pests in New Zealand and are being eradicated. The farmer thought these scrappy little wild ones were so ingenious, however, that they deserved to live so he let them surf on. Awwwww. Lucky rabbits.
