A wonderful composition of one of Slonem's most iconic subjects, Bunnies. This piece depicts gestural figures of two black bunnies on a metallic gold surface with silver. Slonem traces the bunnies with thick black paint, encases the composition with gold and silver thick brushstrokes, and then scores the work to reveal yellow and red underpainting thereby adding another level of sophistication. Inspired by nature and a genuine love for animals, Slonem's paintings encompass unique inspirations drawn from the world. While viewing this piece in person, it is as if we are surrounded by elegance effortlessly, dazzled by the sparkle and enchanted with the charm of the Rabbit which symbolizes good fortune. This painting invites us to celebrate nature and the simplicity of form from the inspiring world of the Rabbit. The painting is signed and dated on verso.
