The March Hare



The theme over at The Altered Alice blog is butter yellow, inspired by the March Hare's use of butter for the Mad Hatter's watch... it was the best butter.

This piece was created in my mini art journal- 4" x 4".  A vintage French book page is the base layer and yellow watercolor crayon provides the "buttery" part.  Paint marker, white oil pencil and graphite pencil  circles are the next layer.  The hare is enhanced with colored pencil and the new table cloth and accent dots (around the Hare) are courtesy of white acrylic paint.  The border is blue metallic paint and the words are written on scraps from antique spelling primer pages.  The Hare's new whiskers and straggles were made with an ultra fine point Sharpie pen.
