Rabbit chair


Previous work


Wishing you all a wonderful day! 

This is a chair I painted a few years ago. I have painted many a stripe and check. In previous years I have to confess I had now clue what a prim was, now I don't seem to be able to get away from them.
and loving every minute.

We all walk paths in life and you never know when the path may turn!
