Moon Rabbit

Finished this piece called "Sorrow" as part of the Phases de la lune series. It is based on the Moon Rabbit in folklore, a story that exists in many different cultures. I've many drawn on the Chinese folklore, and Chang'e as moon goddess for this depiction. On top of her head are Ipomoea alba, otherwise known as Moonflowers and are so called because they bloom in the evening.

Here are some photos showing the process.

Here's the final piece! Now available as a print on Society6.
