Artist“The March Hare will be much the most interesting, and perhaps as this is May it won’t be raving mad—at least not so mad as it was in March.” Painting a self portrait in oil paints.
A wide-angle, highly detailed oil painting depicts a brown rabbit or hare dressed in a red coat, yellow vest, and blue cravat, arms outstretched, with a large, glowing orange and red circular sun or celestial body directly behind its head in the sky. The rabbit’s head is centered, with big, alert brown eyes and long, pointed ears. Its chest is covered by a yellow vest with a line of gold buttons, and it wears a light blue striped collared shirt under a darker blue cravat. Its hands are a yellowish-green, one raised in a peace sign gesture to the left, and the other extended to the right, fingers splayed. The background features a vibrant gradient sky, transitioning from a dark blue at the top where the celestial body is, to a bright teal, and then to a lighter green at the horizon line. In the lower left and right corners, several dark, stylized pine trees with thin trunks are visible, some reaching high into the sky. A distant, faded city or landscape with spires can be seen on the horizon line beneath the rabbit’s arms. The overall style is reminiscent of psychedelic art, with bold colors and a surreal quality.
