Konijntje, Dutch for Bunny, brings me back to my roots; focusing on a line drawing. The tan shade of stone lets me mimic my original drawing which was executed on a grocery bag.
The space between the stone is my line work. The slight shade variances of the stone plus the placement of the tiles define the rest.
