Description
Nearly a decade ago, I painted a red fox in the snow called Bound and Determined for SEWE. Although it never sold at the show, it was a huge hit with the crowd there. I still have people to this day come up to me at the show and talk about how they wished they’d bought it that year. I like the idea of a side-lit, action packed predator scene, as well as the complimentary colors of the orange fox against a cold blue background, so I painted another one the year I was the featured artist. My favorite part of this piece is actually the foliage I put in the background and how it subtly evened out the color in the piece. Ironically enough, the buyer himself was fairly sophisticated in fine art and panting techniques, and he said that’s the reason he bought it.Ryan Kirby Quality Guarantee
