BuNNy EaRs FoR EvErYoNE

Not sure what came over me, perhaps it was the ADO wonderland event or watching the fabulous stop motion Czech film “Alice”  That featured Alice turning into a doll, a fabulously creepy taxidermy rabbit, a sock puppet caterpillar and  fabulous creatures made out of bones and found objects. 

 

But almost everything I created in the summer had rabbit ears!!   Very weird.. 

 

On with the show…

It was a silly/sick joy to cut the face off of this Hallmark stuffed bunny (upclycled from Goodwill) and replace it with one of my sweet but strange baby faces. Reminds me a bit of Max from Where the Wild Things are, simultaneously  sweet and rough at the same time.

Then there is this little bunny man…

He started his life our as a cloth and clay animal of some kind.  When I found him in my stash there was no head left but cute paws and feet still.  So I did a little creative transplant with a baby Jesus from a nativity scene, and then sculpted some new bunny ears and an anatomical  heart out of Apoxy sculpt.  The perfect aged house shape was a salvaged from an old bird house.

 

 

And then here is the rascal that started this trend…

finished with his ruffled pants.
