Here’s a new painting for my wildlife series. Years ago, when I began my Heni’s Happy Paintings Etsy store I did a series for young children that included one of a bunny, the original of which I gave to my oldest niece’s first baby, then I did one of lambs on a meadow and then finally a fox. The fox print was the best seller. The fox brought another niece to mind as her favorite Disney film was the Fox and the Hound and I gave her a small framed print. Sometime later she met a guy who soon became her boyfriend who also happened to like foxes and in fact got a striking fox tattoo on his arm. After they had been together for a while, I did another painting of a fox in a moonlight scene and gave the print to him for his birthday. Now it’s years later and these two foxes are engaged and planning to marry before the year’s end.
With that in mind I thought it would be fun to do a new painting of a fox couple. It was challanging, I spent a lot of time working on their expressions and also getting the colors to work. I think it’s turned out pretty well and hopefully they will like it. I could see it going into the nursury of their first baby. We’ll see. I plan to get back to doing some larger abstract paintings this weekend.
