RED FOX
Another painting based on a PMP photo by Steven J. Berkowitz.
I'm so grateful to all the photographers who generously post their
works on PMP (Paint My Photo)
for artists like myself who do not live in a region where animals
like the Red Fox and others live.
Hi Carol,
ReplyDeleteYour fox is really looking at me! You did a great job of portraying him, nice to see you painting again!
Hope the New Year will be good for you!

DeleteI wish you and your family a very wonderful New Year, Diana. I look forward to seeing many more of your incredible art pieces in the coming year. I know what you mean about this guy's eyes. He stared at me the whole time I painted. Kind of unnerving!
Beautiful work on this Fox’s eyes ...I love his expression.... the last time I saw a fox was by the Grand Canyon North .. they’re so beautiful....I love the color of their fur and amazing patterns... PMP is a wonderful site ... I can spend hours looking at their photos..... glad to see you posting.... now that I’m over the fall I have the flu !!!! It’s almost funny ....I haven’t gone to the doctors because he’s going to tell me chicken soup and rest.... done!!! Take care my friend...

DeleteLucky you to have seen one in person. They certainly are beautiful. PMP had all these great fox photos and I couldn't resist!!
I'm sorry about your bout with the flu. It's got to be a bummer to heal from a bad fall and then to catch the flu! Hope things improve for you quickly! I enjoy your artwork so very much!
Incredibly strong glare ...almost hypnotizing ! Beautiful work on the fur too , and the green background really enhances the fox !

DeleteThank you, Jane for such a nice comment. You are able to see into a painting so well.
I agree with "the strong glare." Once one of my first grade boys said, "Mrs. Flatt doesn't raise her voice, Mom. She just gives us 'The LOOK!'"
Ah Carol I love your fox...he is gorgeous. We are fortunate at times to catch site of them where I live. They are more nocturnal so rather rare to see them in the day. Have a blessed weekend. Hugs! P.S. Thank you so much for stopping to visit me.

DeleteI imagine with the beautiful land that you have you see a lot of interesting animals. I envy you. Must be a thrill to see them.
I thank you, Debbie for all the words of wisdom and love. You lift me up, you know.
We stumbled over here different page and thought I might check things

DeleteThank you for visiting my blog. Hope you do return.
The way you captured the jelly like substance of the eye knocked my socks off. Most people just add a highlight and it looks good but you went a huge step further and created the perfect inside of the eye! Love the rest too but cannot stop looking at how you did the eyes. Good to have you back with a post!

ReplyDeleteYour comment made me smile, Julie. I appreciate that you take the time to write. The photo that had the fox was such a good one with excellent lighting and color. One could see every detail of the eye. It looked to me that foxes don't have the "white" in the eye as we do. The whole eye background was yellow...different shades of yellow, but all yellow nonetheless.
It's a beautiful painting. I'm visiting you from Debbie's blog.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you came by. and I hope you will again. It's so nice to hear from people.
DeleteLove his color and the texture of his fur - and those eyes! They are very well done, Carol. Lovely work!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Susan. I find YOUR work is very motivating for me. I love your brushwork and approach to painting. There is such an energy in what you do.
