11 x 14 inches watercolor on 140lb watercolor paper a touch of goauche on the fur

I fought and fought with the composition on this one in my sketchbook. I even wasted 2 sheets of watercolor paper that I thought I liked it, but then realized they sucked. T_T

I came across this composition and was struck by the fullness of the land, and the loneliness of the rabbit. I have been out on snowy nights like this, and I feel so alone, but alive and full at the same time. (does that make sense?) Once I got this composition going, it was like the work told me what colors to use and how. I could nitpik myself for a few brushstrokes or color hues, but I am very happy with this one. :-)

EDIT: Realized how small file was, got it bigger so you can see detail.

I do like the shading with this one; and it's like you said, it does give you that feeling of being alone but so alive at the same time. :)

and yeah, i kinda know what you're talking about when you say you wasted watercolor papers....i always get kinda nervous when i'm drawing on watercolour paper, because i know that they are expensive and i can't buy them everywhere.

I read you description :D It's just that the sky is too 'bright' for me... X-D

I'm from a weird part of the world where the moon usually shines bright against a dark sky.

Anyway, your work is lovely and that's what's important :D
