Glitter Bugs For Jaks

So a few weeks ago we found a large lump on Jaks's tummy.

 

I didn't mention it here on the blog yet because it's was just stressing me out too much

and usually when something is freaking me out,

I need to take my own time to quietly process it and deal with it all in my own way.

 

 

On our doctors opinion and after many sleepless nights,

we've decided to go ahead with the surgery to remove the large lump

and to have it biopsied so we know if we're dealing with cancer or not.

 

 

So I've been spending alot of time in the upstairs studio,

which as you know, I share with Jaks,

just to be near my sweet spotted prince.

 

 

It's my routine whenever something is up with one of the buns.

It's my way I guess to deal with the scare and stress of it all....

to constantly be around, more than normal, offering an increased love dosage!

 

So as my spotted prince naps away,

I've been working on these bugs to cheer myself up.

I am calling them "Glitter Bugs".

 

 

They are all miniature.  A teeny tiny 2 x 2" and smaller and will be little mixed media gems.

I am going to finish up these first few this weekend.

 

Jaks surgery is going to be $600

and I thought maybe...

just maybe these little bugs can help pay for the cost of the surgery?!?

 

So starting next week, I'll start listing the originals...

they'll go for a great price of $20-$30 only. 

Each one unique & original.

They'll be filled with bunny mojo, they will be full of glitter...I think they are going to be really fun.

 

So hop in next week to see the first few all finished up and snatch up any that you love.

 

See ya all next week XO.

 



Bunny Honey Hop Along

"Bunny, honey, hop along...your so sweet, let's sing a song"

no I am  not loosing my mind! ha ha, it's just a little ditty that came to mind as I worked on her.

 

 

Isn't' she a sweetie?  (she is modeled after our honey bee Teela).

Prints have already hopped along into the shop for anyone interested.

A collection of my rabbit inklings would look SO good in a kids room...just putting that out there!



Another Inkling

A newbie just finished up.

 

 

Flynnster was the model for this one.

She Nurtured Her Kindred Spirits

This is to date, my favorite illustration yet.

 

"She Nurtured Her Kindred Spirits"

 

 

This is one of those rare occasions where the tangible turns out better than what was floating about

in my head.  I love the mood I achieved with the painted background mixed with the

crispness & fun of the foreground bits.

 

Here's a closer look...

 

This image is for any animal lover.

Especially those who love the coziness of rain and of September...

It's for those souls like me, who rush outside everyday to feed the furry monkeys out there

as well as any monkeys you may have inside.

 

And yeppers, you once again guessed it.  Prints are already sitting in my shop for you.

 

Thanks SO much for dropping in this week....see you all next week.  XXOO.



McHale

Everyone I'd like you to meet my newest little character...

 

"McHale"

 

This little brown rabbit has a really interested career.

Can you guess what it may be???

 

 

He is a singing minstrel.

 

(and no they aren't a thing from the past, not where he hails from anyhow!)

But not just any singing minstrel...He is a singing minstrel to horses.

That's right...his job is to travel from farm to farm

(right now he's mostly working around the Edinburgh area in the UK)

and he sings tales & happy songs to the hard-working horses on these farms.

It's his job to bolster the creatures up & remind them why they work so hard for humankind.

His voice has a magical quality to it you see and just one or two tales/songs

and the aches and pains, muscle & joint stiffness all but melt away...

and this enchanted healing lasts for a good long whiles too because all the hoofed clients

have to do is hum the song or remember the tale &
bing bam boo their worn bodies all healed up and soothed over again.

Can you believe too that, each and every tale or song this little guy sings is one of a kind.

And guess what...he does so for free.

He asks for not a single dime, just a soft warm bed of hay

and a good tasty stew of beans & carrots

before he travels onto the next farm in need.

He is quite sought after by many farmers all over the world.

 

Isn't that just one of the coolest jobs a rabbit could ever have?!

 

He is a sweet little fella made with coloured pencil on paper on an acrylic painted wood canvas.

He measure a precious little 5" x 7".

The original is ready for a new home & is ready to be shipped & hung.

Interested?

Just email me at MandySaile@BijousWhimsy.com and we'll talk prices.

 

He's one of a kind so I think someone should snatch him up, Don't you?
