Happy Everything

Hi Everybody!

Happy Easter, Happy Passover, Happy Weekend, Happy Everything!

For Art Journal Journey, favourite poem or quote, and Moo Mania and More, eggs, I have made another journal page, this time with an Easter Bunny. Not usually my theme, but I found Mrs Bunny in my stash and decided to use her. I gave her a coat of crackle varnish and distressed her a bit, and added some structure paste to the contours of her basket and eggs,  to the flowers on her dress, and to her eyes. The background was made with brushos over wet gesso, with some extra colours added with Gelatos. The birds were drawn with black ink.







We had a lot of clouds again today, and the sun peeped through now and again.



In the evening I watched the Easter Moon rising in the sky:







Have a great weekend, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by.

  6. Deine Hasenfrau hast Du genial inszeniert und der Spruch ist toll dazu!
    Hab sie vorgestern in der Nacht hier gesehen, sie war ganz aus dem Häuschen, weil sie den Korb verloren hatte, glaub ich! Herrlich hast Du den Mond eingefangen! Ich wünsche Dir einen frohen Sonntag liebe Valerie!
    MM&M und AJJ danken von ♥

  19. Nice work with Mrs. Bunny and her shopping. Is that a Valerie-invented quote? - I like it.
    The moon was spectacular here last night too, I didn't think of it as an Easter moon but I like that idea too.

  20. No, I read the quote somewhere, and wrote it down, but forgot to say who wrote it....

  26. Oh, the quote is a nice twist! I really like your colours and your use of the vintage bunny!

    We have had a very cloudy Easter Week, and when it wasn't cloudy and finally sunny, it was VERY windy! Ugh!
