Jan 2008: You can now buy prints of my work on Deviant Art : www.moonrabbituk.deviantart.com Any pictures you'd particularly like to buy, if they're not available as prints on the site, let me know and I'll get them up ASAP.

Jan 2008: I am in the process of trying to find an environmentally friendly source for prints - printer/paper/inks etc. so these should be available soon too.


Dec 2006: My picture, Journey Into Darkness, is featured in Pentacle magazine (Autumn 2006). Thank you to Pentacle for publishing my work alongside so many wonderful artists.


I live, at the moment, in the heart of Somerset near the village of Glastonbury.

Here's a compilation of my work for all of you out there in the big, wide world to see. Hope you enjoy having a wander round.

 

I feel, and indeed hope that, my work is strongly rooted in a truely earthy world inspired by, but not necessarily a part of, a type of 'folk' art; art from the heart, soul and spirit of the land around, and the people and creatures that share it.   I rarely know how a piece is going to turn out when I begin, the outcome can therefore be unpredictable but I simply stop when it feels complete to me...... I am relatively self taught and I guess I would perhaps call myself an instinctual artist?   

NOTE:Through using the word 'artist' there  I notice again, as I have before, how I am repelled by the descriptive term of artist of and in itself, as seeming to elevate the individual above all 'non-artists'.  I feel and think that we are all creators, if only given the opportunity and the 'permission' to allow ouselves to express as we need to, without restriction.  Restrictive phrases and terms such as the use of 'artist' seem to hinder other's creative urges and impulses, perhaps it's intention - employed by a few to gain superiority over many.........??

(appologies for the rant there! got a little carried away, just a thought.) 

 

I try to stay true to some sense of this ethos in the media I use and the work I create, though I am constantly aiming to improve and expand the media I currently use. I very much enjoy painting with some beautiful  watercolour paints sourced from natural plant-based material I found on the internet, recycled art paper and supplies as much as possible and any reclaimed, reusable materials.

Please feel welcome to add any comments, suggestions or thoughts, it's always good to hear from any others on their views and ideas, thoughts and feelings.

 

If you would like to use my work in any form please get in touch, initially via my contact page, and I will be happy to help where I can.  If you are interested I'd love to hear from you.

 

Any portion of this site taken without my prior consent will, I'm afraid, carry with it a curse, so watch out!

Hope you enjoy! Best warm wishes, MoonRabbit
