Hi everyone,

If you celebrate, I wish you a very happy Easter.

Here is part 1 of the Rabbit Standing tutorial. I've called it 'Rabbit Standing' because I have another rabbit tutorial here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/27317525  and I wanted to avoid confusion if ever anyone is asking me questions about it.

I chose transparent pigments for this painting to fill it with light. I had children on my mind when I painted it because I was hoping it would be a suitable painting for a child's room. I begin painting quite loose and then I add detail over the top.

Part 2 is here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/49512853

I downloaded the photo from Unsplash website. It was taken by Stefan Fluck. Here is the link if you'd like to download it yourself: https://unsplash.com/photos/usoJcs--nEk I have also put the link on the Supplies List.

All of the files you need to complete the painting are attached below my message here.

Have fun with it and I hope you enjoy it!

Louise

If I do a tutorial where I use another photographer's photo (eg from Pixabay or Unsplash) that is available for anyone throughout the world to download (copyright free) and use I’m happy for you to sell the paintings you create from the tutorial.

If I do a tutorial and I use a photo that I have paid for and downloaded from the website Wildlife Reference Photos in order for you to sell the painting you create from the tutorial you need to purchase and download the photograph yourself.

Louise De Masi

Hi Karen. That's wonderful! I'm glad you're enjoying the tutorials. Have fun! ❤️

Hi Louise, I was wondering if i could substitute the antwerp blue with prussian blue and raw sienna instead of raw umber in the Daniel Smith range. I've been doing your tutorials for a while now and love everyone one of them and I have learnt so much from you. Sometimes I have to paint some of them twice as Im still learning. Im not sure if mine are too pale and if Im not using enough pigment. i use mainly arches and Daniel Smith. Thank you

Louise De Masi

Hi Natalie, that's wonderful - thank you. Yes you could substitute Antwerp with Prussian Blue. Raw Sienna and Raw Umber are both earth pigments, but they behave a bit differently. Raw Sienna in the Daniel Smith range is warmer and more yellow, while Raw Umber is cooler and more neutral/brown. So Raw Sienna might not give the same depth or coolness. That said, you can use Raw Sienna as a substitute but expect a warmer result. You could also cool it down a touch by mixing in a bit of blue or a neutral tint if needed.

Valerie Duncan

Have I mentioned how wonderful it is that you, and ONLY YOU!, enlarge your line drawings to make it easier for us learners??? Absolutely grade A. Just so generous of you and your precious time. THANK YOU!!!

Yumi Rager

Louise, Thank you for the detailed instructions for sharing online of the results from your tutorials. While I understood the copyright rules, I wasn't sure how to do that with friends outside our fb group. I will follow your instructions, and maybe some friends will join my journey of creating and learning. ❤

Ali B

I hope Dom is resting more comfortably today - please send our very best wishes to him. xx

Nat Ford

Would you be okay with sharing your colour and to al studies with us? This is fascinating. Definitely artistic license. I cannot see violet anywhere in the reference photo.

Pilar Figueroa

Dear Louise, I love your teaching,but painted several times de rabbit an it ended in my garbage. This is my problem, when I mix the Antwerp blue with the raw umber it became green. I tried with different amount of each pain an always is green. Help please

Louise De Masi

Hi Pilar, I used Burnt Sienna to mix with Antwerp Blue not Raw Umber. If it's not working for you try it without mixing anything into the blue. Use the blue on it's own.
