The Foxes

Art

Rustic scene- forest view with a split rail wooden fence. One fox is jumping over the fence and the other fox has paused and is looking a the viewer. Standing fox forms the focal point of the painting. The artist depicted a rounded belly with light colored paint, then tones of brown and red for a luminescent quality.
