Description Continuing on with the theme, and given how much I enjoyed the commission of the hare in charcoal, I thought I would create another hare, this time in watercolour.

Here is a close-up of the face of my latest picture (currently at the framer). I am hoping to enter the painting in the next Wanneroo Joondalup Art Society art exhibition in May. Getting excited working on new work. I will post the whole picture once the exhibition is done. Watch this space!😁

Theway you made those whiskers look so natural and... scruffy? Uneven? Realistically spread out? I hope you know what I mean to say. It's awesome!

Thank you I really love rabbits and hares, but we don't get hares in Western Australia so drawing one is the next best thing

Ah, I see. Well, here in Northern Germany we get hares all the time, especially in spring. Some of them visit the garden at my parents' house regularly. The garden behind the house is situated right next to a meadow, which is providing the local farmers with hay. When I was little I used to run around there and once, I accidentally startled a hare having sat in the tall grass and suddenly he sprang away, startling me back.

Oh, that's lovely. My parents are German and all my relatives live in Germany. I visited my Grandparents when I was 11 years old and spent 6 months there, also going to school there. My husband and I visited my relatives about 6 years ago and stayed with my aunt and uncle in Kaiserslautern (which is where my mother is from). We also stayed for 4 days with my cousin in Pfaffenhoffen and she took us to see some of the sights in Bavaria. It is truly a magical place.Β  I love Germany

Funny how one sometimes finds things to complain about the place where one lives and sees the beauty about other places, especially having an emotional connection like family with them. I find the winters here in northern Germany a bit unpleasant with lots of thaw weather and slosh in the streets; but Finland is a place I always think fondly of. It's where my mother comes from. That's where I always think back on when reminiscing about beautiful sights and family gatherings seeing people you haven't seen in a while. The nature is also pretty inspiring for my art.
