VIDEO DESCRIPTION This painting tutorial will take you through easy to follow, step-by-step instructions on how to paint this adorable double animal portrait of “BAD HARE DAY“ with an expressive face on the rabbit and a curious pose on the chick. You'll learn simple painting techniques that will help you to create this fluffy bunny with its distinctive long tall hairy ears, prominent features and eyes that stare right, as well as, a tiny little baby chicken perched on top of the rabbit’s head looking at us with a sense of pride and curiosity. You’ll learn to draw basic outlines that give form and shape to the bird and bunny. Then with a dry brush technique you'll learn how to create dimension on the face and around the ears with perfectly placed highlights and shadows in the fur. The strong posture of this rabbit tells the story of his emotions… is he annoyed, patient, or amused? You'll learn to paint realistic eyes with depth that have a twinkle and a reflection. Using only 3 brushes and 5 colors we'll create this conversational masterpiece with these fun Easter Holiday inspired animals that are sure to add spring cheer on the wall of any home with their charming faces and cute expressions. So let's get painting and let's get sipping!
