Bunnies

Exciting, unexpected, impressionistic - the Slonem bunny paintings run the gamut. This is a mega collection for the adult and child alike. A treasury filled with enchanting full-colour and black-and-white paintings by celebrated artist Hunt Slonem, 'Bunnies' features a foreword by bestselling author (and friend of the artist) John Berendt, and an essay by artist and gallerist, Bruce Helander. John Berendt writes, "Every morning, upon rising - even before he's had his first cup of coffee - Hunt Slonem performs his daily warm-ups . In the course of half hour he will have populated all the panels with rabbits. These paintings are what he calls his warm-ups." AUTHOR: Hunt Slonem is an American painter, sculptor, and printmaker.
