It was a quiet day in the woods, until Raleigh and Lotus got lost.
Carla Sonheim has a book and classes called “Imaginary Creatures”. They’re excellent for finding ways to create creatures from your imagination, or even real ones with personalities you wouldn’t normally thought of on your own.
Earl likes to sun himself. He doesn’t hear so well anymore so he was quite startled when the little girl tried to pet him…
The bunny sketches are done in my Innovative Journal, that I stitched myself from a kit. For more info about the kit, here is the link…

All the bunnies are from my imagination, painted with gouache and they are not digitally touched up. They have been photographed with my iPhone 12 Pro.
In the lone reaches of an alpine meadow sits Frosty, a high mountain bunny.
I forgot to add on the previous bunny posts that these sketches are done in my Innovative Journal, that I stitched myself from a kit.

Barney sneaked into the garden. He couldn’t help himself. The carrots smelled so good.
Stuart knew he shouldn’t have teased that dog, but he just couldn’t help himself. Then he realized that the gate was open….
The General has a very important job to watch the wildflowers and he takes his job very seriously.
Max likes to dig burrows and hide in high, thick grasses. He loves vidalia onions and red beets, but he’s often chased by farmers.
It’s summer but that also means that it is baby bunny season. Be careful when you are mowing and keep an eye out for the little ones.
Here in Florida it is also baby lizard season and we have a bumper crop of anole babies this year. We have to watch where we walk because of all the tiny hatchlings. They get a little confused because they like to run to their plant but their plant isn’t always the best choice for escape.
We even have a green anole baby that was born a little over a month ago and Greenie is growing like a weed. Greenie has currently set up shop in the calla lily. Momma Greenie has been hanging out as well.
In the meantime, here is today’s bunny…
Arnie loves to tunnel through sugar cane fields, chewing the sugar cane stalks, which doesn’t make him popular with the sugar people.
Arnie started as a random shape in my morning pages.
I am working on my spring sketchbook again after a little hiatus. Yeah I know, it’s high summer. As I am typing this, a shelf cloud crawls across the sky covering us with a thunderstorm blanket. The palms look like tall thin ladies with their hair blowing behind them. Two sandhill cranes walked by my window with two fuzzy babies. I ran out to take their photo before they are gone. They don’t seem to mind the rain.
Back to the bunnies….These bunnies came from random blobs in my morning pages. I don’t always see bunnies in the blobs but I have a bunch that I can use to finish the sketchbook…though a stray bird or other animal may pop in.
Snowball spotted a juicy patch of dandelions from her favorite tanning rock, but Sandy the fox has her burrow over there. Decisions decisions.
