Listen to the Wild: Gouache painting on Cotton Rag Paper
This original gouache painting captures a quiet moment in nature, showing a beautiful fox standing among tall grasses in a peaceful meadow. The background is painted in deep, soft greens that create a calm, evening-like atmosphere, making the warm, reddish-brown fur of the fox stand out. The fox has a graceful, alert pose as if it’s listening to the sounds around it, ready to notice any movement in its surroundings. Each brushstroke carefully brings out the texture of the fox’s fur and the fine details of the surrounding grasses, making the scene feel alive and inviting.
