Red Fox
|
I am creating a series of paintings about my Spirit Animal the Red Fox to talk about the inherent wisdom that the natural world offers us. To me, to be wild is not to be rowdy or lawless, it means to bathe in the deep spiritual that nature offers all of us. The Red Fox is the wild side of my spirit and through these paintings I am channeling the empowering messages it has to share with the world.
