Welcome!
Here you will find my paintings of rabbit
people. A typical rabbit, if you would like to know, is a kind and
happy creature, maybe also a little bit childish, some may say
naïve. Rabbits certainly don't seem to worry about things, and
one might say it is good for your health to make like a rabbit
sometimes, to counteract the stress of everyday life. Be honest, when
did you last see a burnt out bunny?
The rabbit is an age-old symbol of
fertility and sexual activity, which is something I have tried to
express in my paintings. In addition to the laid-back joy for living I
would wish to show this erotic dimension as they just could be onto
something! I
suppose it's fair to say that not even rabbits are satisfied and
content with their lot all of the time. However, when you look at my
paintings and ask yourself what message they contain; think about the
simple things in life, the free and the innocent and compare this to
how we often feel. Ok, we can't all be rabbits but we can definitely
add a few of their qualities to our own lives.

I
discovered that people are not really afraid of dying; they're afraid
of not ever having lived, not ever having deeply considered their
life's purpose and at least tried to make a difference in this world.
(Joseph Jaworski)
I've
seen that people are nourished by compassion and great freedom, just as
plants in the garden are nourished by sunshine and rain and fertilizing
and proper seeds. (Jack Kornfield)
