Hare and Fox

Mechanical Pencil

This is actually a preliminary sketch for an embroidered bracelet I'm working on. The hare's a bit too big, I think. I'd have to find a comparison photo to check the size of a hare against a fox though.

Since foxes and rabbits/hares are a symbol I use for the different ways my anxiety expresses itself, I like that the hare is following the fox in this. The fox is the crazier, meaner side of my anxiety, while the rabbit is the scared yet steadier side. I don't like feeling either side for very long and I couldn't tell you which is worse. Anxiety is multifaceted that way.
