Lil Bunny

my sample Lil Bunny





I taught a workshop where we made lil pom pom bunnies.
I got the idea from Jennifer Murphy I met her a few years ago at ZNE's Convenzione.
Jennifer is a teddy bear artist & makes adorable creations, often with a vintage look.
She has a adorable blog as well.
We had fun & love the lil bunnies, making the pom pom's is what makes the character.
