Heave
There is nothing more associated than a rabbit with a carrot! Here a greedy rabbit longs for the sweet, crunch of a carrot, his eyes set on the largest carrot on the patch. With eyes bigger than his belly he struggles to pull the carrot out. With the carrot top firmly set in his teeth he pulls himself back and heaves!
A number of techniques and mediums were used in the creation of this piece. The background is fabric painted and the rabbit, carrot, soil and leaves were achieved through quilting, appliqué, painting and embroidery. These techniques create the different textures from the soft fur of the rabbit to the delicate leaves. Unfortunately, the three-dimensional relief doesn't show particularly well in the photos, so please take a look at the depth of the piece to get an idea of the overall effect.
