This is a new painting that was recently completed as a commission for the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. The painting will be reproduced as lithographic prints and conservation stamps through DNR’s habitat conservation program. :)

This is absolutely beautiful, what talent. I have always had a love affair with the fox. For years she would come through our front yard weekly, early in the morn. I tried to get pictures ~ it just never happened. I love to do my watercolors from the pictures I take. I could look at this picture and study it forever. Thank you for sharing your gifted talents with the brush….RaeDi

wow!!! That is such an over used word and I hate to use it but I can think of no better one!!! I love your work. I am what I would like to call an emerging wild life artist… But I am young, 15 actually and not that great… Mostly pencil work. Do you have any advice for a hopeful on looker? Thanks;)

@Carolina Thank you! My Mom is just starting on the 2010 Illinois Habitat Stamp/Print.
@RaeDi Thanks! Yes, they are very beautiful animals. Their coats are such a stunning burnt red color sometimes…amazing. …but you are right..they are so quick…it is difficult to capture them with your camera.
@David Thank you!
@David K Thanks- I’m glad you enjoy it! It would be nice to meet you someday. I’ve seen your work (online) and your society’s website…Kudos! I don’t know what advice to give….except work hard and keep at it. Simple, but it’s worked for me. All best wishes — thanks for stopping by!
@Kristen Thank you! Don’t be too hard on yourself. Being 15 and finding something you really enjoy is fantastic! Just keep going…
