Soft & Fluffy - Maree Clarkson

Art washes away from the soul the dust from every day life.
-Pablo Picasso



My grand-daughter has this beautiful, white bunny called Ms Whisky, who, from time-to-time, escapes from the garden when somebody leaves the gate open, and then sets off to investigate the rest of the Estate. Ensuing phone calls from various neighbours who have spotted her sets a trail for the kids to follow and recapture her, bringing her safely home.

I managed to sketch Ms Whisky when I was in Ballito in June this year by keeping her happy with a dangling carrot.

  1. Wow, keeping a bunny in place long enough to sketch her, not easy. Very sweet sketch. Looking forward to seeing more of your art in 2010!
