279 - I'VE LOST MY RABBIT - DAVE EDWARDS - COLOURED PENCILS & FINELINER PENS - 2009
This fellow landed from my imagination and seems to have lost his pet rabbit. He didn’t leave it in his space-ship, so goodness knows where it is. If you find it, you have to cry, “He’s behind you!” in true pantomime spirit :)
I used coloured pencils and fineliner pens to bring him to life. He’s not based on anyone or anything; purely imaginative.

love it
BLYTHART replied
thanks … but did you find his bunny for him? :)
petertucker
Is that Peter the Rabbit off on his travels?
BLYTHART replied
You guessed right!
Deborah Glasgow
Davy! He’s in the cabbage patch, silly man ;) You are so good. Love this.
BLYTHART replied
Thanks. I hereby appoint you my Chief Rabbit-Finder :) I bet you love pantomimes :P
Deborah Glasgow
Shut Up! You’ve been reading my diary…....;) Oh, wait a minute, I have a big, fat kitty that will help you out….:D
BLYTHART replied
We had a rabbit that chased our cats – seriously. He even growled.

ROFLOL
Lynnette Shelley
cool pic dave!
BLYTHART replied
Thanks Lynnette.
GEORGE SANDERSON
Nice one Dave !!!
The rabbit is behind him….. Oh yes it is !
BLYTHART replied
Thanks George … nice to have audience participation :)
Patricia L. Ba...
This is very cool! What an imagination!
Arletta
And the first phrase that came to mind, upon first seeing this was “How friggin’ cool can you get?”
The thought hasn’t changed much, since that point.
This is so neat! Do more of them and make a kids book based on the poor guy trying to find his rabbit, is my suggestion. It might sell well. I know I’d want a copy!
BLYTHART replied
Thanks for the compliments. The book would be good, but it’s already been done. My daughter had a book with a similar theme where you had to find a character that would be hidden on every page.

yah gutah say diz haz lots of eye magin n ation wow. off them upers?downers?son,cus i,m gettin dizzee see this wow wild
BLYTHART replied
Thanks Walt … did you find the bunny? :)
Tom Gomez
Nice work Dave, oh and ‘He’s behind you’
BLYTHART replied
Hee … you’re as daft as I am :)
LTScribble
LOL wondeful pic and i found him ;0).....he’s behind you…....lol…....such fun…..
BLYTHART replied
Little things please little minds :P
LTScribble
i think you would have to explain to me the context of what you consider to be little in relation to the context of what you consider to be large :0) I am pleased with this…..and to create this you have to have a very large imagination which implies a large mind….....hehehe…..so there
BLYTHART replied
Oops – I was referring to you finding the bunny, not me drawing it :P
LTScribble
lol :0)
Arletta
Uhm .. there are thousands of similar books, in fact; one more wouldn’t hurt! Might help. Not that I’m insisting that you have to make one. Just saying, if no one ever wrote a murder mystery, horror story, history book on William Wallace, love story, or etc. just because someone else had written something similar, there’d be darned few books and we’d miss out on a lot of good literature!
BLYTHART replied
Thanks … I appreciate your kind thought, but I have no money to pay for printing and new authors very rarely get works like that published for free.
Linda Callaghan
this is great Dave…goes well with Peter Rabbit…..now if we could only find him?
lol…...
BLYTHART replied
Thanks. I am capable of being objective and I now feel that the background is far too cluttered.
Linda Callaghan
I would call it full of interest and colour (also Peter Rabbit has a lot more places to hide if there are more things there….wonder which tree he is behind) lol…
BLYTHART replied
Because there is a little brown rabbit (a small one) in this picture, it was accepted into Rabbit, Rabbit Group … kind of them.
BLYTHART replied
Peter rabbit is off for a pint of beer, but his cousin is here.
Linda Callaghan
oh there he is!! he is off to the pub to meet Peter! lol…..
Arletta
lol And, you can publish for free at Lulu.com, so long as you do your own formatting. It does cost something to buy one of their distribution packages, but, you don’t have to. You could just upload and sell as either a download or an actual book, and put your copyright and not even have to buy an ISBN unless you wanted to try selling it in book stores or to the library.
And, I’m still not insisting, just saying .. it can be done and it would be excessively cute. lol
BLYTHART replied
Going by the incredibly poor reception this has received (compared to my other most recent one) I don’t think anyone other than you would be interested:( I certainly do appreciate your enthusiasm though and thank you very much.
Alexandra Felgate
Hahaha, I LOVE your imagination Dave!!!! Awesome work as always.
PS…..”He’s BEHIND you!!!!!!!!!”
Bunny Clarke
How fun this is! Great work.
Catherine Howell
I hope he didn’t eat him:)))))))))))))))))))) Neat art, Dave!!
BLYTHART replied
No – he comes from a planet where they are all vegetarians :)
Arletta
This is what poor reception looks like, is it? Wow! You must get a LOT of attention.
For me, this would be a good haul of comments. I’m soundly ignored, by most.
BLYTHART replied
Yes, this has plenty comments, which I truly appreciate. That’s not how I measure the success of a picture though :) I won’t be doing any more like this for a while … it was done in a fit of whimsy :)
Malcolm Chant
Yerp you’ve hidden him very well Dave, again an excellent work.
Lenny La Rue, IPA
LMFAO! That rabbit’s not hard to find unless one has a bunniphobia. :-D The part that makes me curious tho is whether or not this fellow is “home” or just landed in a place where his head fits in so well. Sure, he could have taken his rabbit with him in his ship, just now returning home and it hopped out behind him. But, from your description, this must be a new place for both the ice-cream conehead and the bunny in question. In that case, we’d all better hope the hare’s hair doesn’t start changing with the seasons. Finding it then will TRULY be a furry situation indeed. :-O
BLYTHART replied
... that comment was furry funny indeed … when he gets back in the space-craft he will have a hare-raising experience :)
Karin Taylor
wonderful, do hope he finds his wabbit soon Dave :)
BLYTHART replied
I keep telling him it is the furry brown thing with the long ears :)
DilettantO
Fascinating treatment. Reminds me of Yellow Submarine the way it uses pattern so effectively.
BLYTHART replied
Thanks … I can’t resist experimenting. This is part picture and part design, as are many of my pictures. As for Yellow Submarine .. it wasn’t deliberate but yellow submarine is certainly entrenched in my subconscious, as I am a Beatles fan (since 1963).
GittiArt
Love your colourful drawings a lot …..as always bravo Dave!!!
BLYTHART replied
Many thanks.
BCallahan
i yelled he’s behind you…................ and he didn’t even turn around!!!
really cool pic… well done!!! love the colors…
BLYTHART replied
Sorry about that … he’s actually quite a stubborn little bunny :)
Sean Farragher
he needs Dr Who,,,,,,,,,,,fantrastic
BLYTHART replied
Thanks Sean.
Sean Farragher
yes i got it wrong,,,,,,,,
Margaret Sande...
I’m amazed how you think them all up Dave. Well done.
John Dicandia
Dave, you have been producing some very inspiring work lately. I love this piece, it’s so imaginative and beautifully colourful! :))))
robpixaday
MARVELOUS!!
