Hunt Slonem’s “Butterfly & Bunnies” captures the artist’s beloved rabbit motif alongside a whimsical butterfly in a composition brimming with charm and spontaneity. Set against a serene powder-blue background, bold, gestural strokes of black and white define the elongated ears, expressive eyes, and delicate whiskers of the bunnies, while the butterfly adds a touch of lightness and movement. Slonem’s impasto technique imbues the work with texture and immediacy, inviting the viewer to feel the energy of each brushstroke. As one of the most recognized contemporary American painters, Slonem’s animal portraits have become symbols of joy, renewal, and abundance—making “Butterfly & Bunnies” both a delightful work of art and a collectible piece of his enduring legacy.
