This is the sixth in the red fox series, attempting to work in a different styles as I progress, some may be similar to what I have completed in my pet portrait paintings and other commissions section. I thought I would love to paint a series of foxes because they are interesting, solitary creatures that seem to have similar personalities with cats (just like me). My love for foxes was influenced decades ago by the Disney movie, The Fox and The Hound, and through a couple life experiences while growing up in Northern British Columbia, Canada.
I also began to record my painting progress and creating a time lapse of the videos. Original Youtube video can be found here: https://youtu.be/nakI2pWyE2k

I was so happy to be a part of the Women’s Rights March in New York this year. This was one of my favourite photos I took after walking through the city for hours. Photo taken near dusk using my Sony A6000 with it’s 16mm-70mm lens.
We walk our dogs off leash at night in the center of Central Park. The view of downtown is amazing most nights, I had to share. Taken with my Sony A6000 with 16-70mm lens.

My love for foxes was influenced decades ago by the Disney movie, The Fox and The Hound, and through a couple life experiences while growing up in Northern British Columbia, Canada. I was drawn to the movement and flow of a fox when it would pounce to catch its prey. The capture of a fox in midair shows the concentration it has when hunting.

The Murder – Two Crows
24in x36in x 1 3/4in Oil on Canvas
01-2017
A commissioned work that I recently completed. The purchaser wanted a painting of crows and after reviewing a number of images we both agreed on this one. Original was a black and white photograph that I then modified using Illustrator and some filters to tone down the details and add more colour.
I am using 1.75in high quality gallery stretched canvas with a floating frame via Gotrick. This item also was framed with a simple, black floating wood frame before being shipped.

This is the first in the series, attempting to work in a different style that I have when I have completed pet portrait paintings and other commissions. I thought I would love to paint a series of foxes because they are interesting, solitary creatures that seem to have similar personalities with cats (just like me). I have started with gathering images and info about red foxes but have since been also thinking about looking into Fennec, Arctic, and Bat-Eared foxes as possible subjects.

In a City of Millions, There is a Lot of Beauty – New York
18×24 Oil on Canvas w/Floater Frame
2016-12 – 2017-01
My first day by myself, walking through Central Park and I thought I should sit on a bench and soak in the autumn air and colours. I glanced over to my left to see this couple walking on the path in from of me. The young girl was quietly walking beside the older woman and they were joined by the teddy bear between them. They passed by and I was smiling at this image when I thought I needed to share this amazing image that is happening within the hustle and bustle of New York. I pulled out my phone and snapped two or three photos of them while the sun sparkled through the yellow leaves of the trees.
This painting has been sold but I do have museum quality, archival prints and products available for purchase via Fine Art America.
