White Hare's Garden is an oil on canvas and depicts a white hare in an abstract summer meadow full of wildflowers. The white hare looks over its shoulder at us and is surrounded by random plants and flowers, all completing to be seen. It was inspired by walking around the fields and meadows of East Sussex in late July. The unharvested fields look like giant unravelling carpets of flora and fauna, which has influenced how I painted this. The white hare is there because it seems right there. Another influence for this painting was the strange and beautiful landscape paintings of Gustav Klimt, who has long been a favourite artist of mine. He had a way of taking very odd viewpoints and making them completely fascinating.

The artwork is painted on a deep edge canvas, no frame is needed, and will give you summer forever.
