One of two very different and separate paintings of rabbits, which artist Tony Beaver imagines to be opposite sides of the same coin.

Baby Bunny in the snowscape is a painting about innocence and new
life emerging from a cold winter landscape. The tiny creature is
completely unaware of the Spring coming alive under the snow. In the
painting the snow is painted in an ambiguous and soft way. It suggests a
vastness of depth, not unlike staring at a white winter sky. The
painting suggests endlessness, suggested by the rabbit’s point of view.
The endlessness of knowing nothing but Winter.

In contrast, its bedfellow, The Fireside Rabbit imagines a completely different kind of
creature. It is a creature of the night and the dark. The painting
speaks of prehistoric Winter gatherings around fires, the only defence
against the cold and the dark. The rabbit is lit as if from within. It
is filled with a Pagan, fire lit power. The painting has something of
the quality of a stained glass window in a medieval church. It is
omitting light and heat. The electricity and glow of the colours serve
as a metaphor for the electricity and glow of life.

Both paintings are about being alive in Winter.
