Fox Nature Shorts
Description: Foxes are small to medium-sized, omnivorous mammals belonging to several genera of the family Canidae. They have a flattened skull, upright triangular ears, a pointed, slightly upturned snout, and a long bushy tail (or brush). Twelve species belong to the monophyletic "true foxes" group of genus Vulpes. Approximately another 25 current or extinct species are always or sometimes called foxes; these foxes are either part of the paraphyletic group of the South American foxes, or of the outlying group, which consists of the bat-eared fox, gray fox, and island fox.
Description: This piece was done using watercolour paints and finished with soft pastels to give it a furry coat texture. I think this piece worked really well, because it captures the furry textures well in certain areas of the figure and wirey fur around the face. The colours were also really nice to work with
