Keep of the Woods- 8 x 10 acrylic on stretched canvas
A quiet companion in the deep blue dusk.
This fox carries the warmth of memory and the steady presence of a guardian. Painted in rich oranges and russet reds, his gaze is gentle yet knowing, he has the look of a creature who has seen you through more than you realize. Behind him glows a hand-painted golden halo, spiraling with warmth and metallic light. The background is layered with sweeping strokes of deep cobalt and soft interference blue, a paint that catches light in shifting iridescent flashes. It creates the feeling of twilight moving quietly around him.
The contrast, a warm, glowing fox against a cool, shimmering evening sky, gives this piece the sense of a small spirit guide illuminated from within. He feels like a watcher, a companion for winter evenings, a reminder of intuition and quiet wisdom.
While painting him, I kept thinking of the fox my sister and I befriended as children. We spent an entire summer gaining his trust, feeding him hot dogs from our hands, whispering to him like he was a secret friend. For several years he returned to our yard — a gentle proof that the wild can be kind, and that connection can bloom in unexpected places. This painting holds that feeling for me: loyalty, curiosity, and the soft magic that walks beside us even when we don’t see it.
This is one of the most detailed pieces in the collection, built from many layers of transparent color, iridescent glow, and careful brushwork to bring out the fox’s vivid expression.
