He has painted them thousands of times, and each one is unique: a rapid, rhythmic outline captured in a few confident movements of the brush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eOval\u003c\/em\u003e shows that gesture at its most graphic. Heavy black paint outlines the rabbit’s tall ears, eyes and face against a white ground, with fine lines scratched through the wet paint to form the whiskers. The surface is thickly worked, so the brushmarks stand up from the canvas and catch the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe frame is as much a part of the piece as the painting. Slonem is known for pairing his rabbits with antique and vintage-style frames, and here a dark, tortoiseshell-toned oval with a beaded outer edge, a gilded inner lip and four carved floral appliqués gives the work a Victorian, cameo-like presence. The monochrome palette means it sits easily in both classic and contemporary interiors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the artist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHunt Slonem (b. 1951) is an American painter best known for his exuberant depictions of rabbits, butterflies and tropical birds.
