Bad Taxidermy Fox
12×12 Acrylic/Oil on Canvas

This is the tenth in the red fox 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). 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. One of a kind painting.

The ninth painting in a series of Fox paintings I have been working on. I am experimenting with different styles while painting this series. I have decided to use geometric and sharper abstract shapes to create the colour layers in this painting again. I enjoy the effect that it creates. The fox is a symbol of me and my childhood memories.

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.

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.

This is the third in the red fox series, attempting to work in a different style that I have when I have completed pet portrait paintings and other commissions.

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.

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.
