The Astronaut and the Easter Bunny: A Space Odyssey Painting

Where do I get my ideas for paintings? Oftentimes, by free association. With Easter coming up, I thought I would do some sort of an Easter related painting in my own surrealistic way. The Easter Bunny came to mind and then I'm not sure what triggered the thought of putting him in space with an astronaut but that's the visual I conjured up. I did a bit of research and found the photo of the astronaut floating in space. Perfect. I didn't want to do the traditional cartoon Easter Bunny so instead I found an image of a man in a bunny costume. Put the two together and it created a truly startling image. There are those that say we never landed on the moon and that space travel is all a big fabrication. There are those that say the Easter Bunny isn't real. This painting proves that both of those are unquestionably false! (Just kidding.) Though not quite my normal surrealistic style, it still seems to fit and I wonder if this image is more Pop Art-ish than surreal. Maybe it's a little of both! It's certainly unlike anything I've done before and that always makes me happy. I hope you like it.
