ONE PER CUSTOMER! - Hare today, Gone Tomorrow!
Burt was the kind of artist whose work had a way of finding people at just the right moment. His canvases were bold, vibrant expressions of life, full of movement, colour, and soul. But it wasn’t just his art that drew people in; it was Burt himself.
He had a quiet confidence, an ability to see beauty in the smallest things, and he believed that everyone had something worth sharing with the world. His studio was always open, a place where other artists came to talk, to work, or just to sit in the warm glow of his optimism.
Despite the inspiration he offered others, Burt was no stranger to struggle. He had known the weight of creative block, the days when nothing seemed to flow, and the doubt that crept in when the world felt indifferent to his work.
Yet, even on his hardest days, he kept creating. “Art is like breathing,” he would say. “You don’t stop because it’s hard, you do it because it keeps you alive.” His persistence reminded others that their own struggles were part of the journey, not a reason to give up.
One summer, Burt's health began to falter, and his hands, once so steady, grew shaky. He could no longer paint the way he used to, but that didn’t stop him from creating. He turned to teaching, offering workshops where he encouraged others to embrace imperfection and find their own voice. He believed in art’s ability to heal and transform, and his lessons were filled with stories of resilience, kindness, and the importance of staying true to yourself.
In time, Burt's legacy became more than just the beautiful works he had painted. He inspired countless others to pick up their brushes, pens, and cameras, to create without fear of judgment or failure.
Though Burt's art would eventually fade from galleries, the artists he touched carried forward his spirit, the belief that in every struggle, there’s the chance to create something beautiful.
