"The Fox and the Sun"

The Fox in the sun

The Fox and the Sun” 16” x 20”

This is an oil painting of a fox calmly sitting in front of a hill. When we first moved to Virginia in 2022, I was surprised by the number of foxes. We would see them all the time in the fields on our walks and drives to school. I wanted to capture the personality of one especially resting in the sun. I love how soft and dynamic the features are in their bodies, and how intricate their faces can be.

This is an oil painting with Gamblin and Williamsburg Oil Paints on hand stretched canvas. This painting is a Christian Ives original oil painting that is colorful and semi-abstract.
