For July 1: Little Bunny Foo Foo

Little Bunny Foo Foo is one of those nursery rhymes that will pop into my head every so often, even now and stay there for days. Something about the bizarre, seemingly unmotivated violence always struck me as sadomasochistic. I've done a few drawings of what I imagine to be Bunny Foo Foo, already a goonish character, masked and dirty; strange and familiar. I made a couple of these drawings into books.


This one masked, playful with innocent eyes and a clean face.

And here, unmasked and beady-eyed, oldish, skull-like and knowing of it's actions.
