Home in the Forest

Acrylic on illustration board. By Vivian de los Rios, 2019.

Our sweet fox continues his Christmas journey, this time finding that he’s not alone! When I set out to do this Christmas painting, I thought it would be nice for the fox to meet someone else. It looks like his fox friend has already made friends with someone else - with snacks!

Acrylics are always a little challenging for me, especially as they are not as forgiving when it comes to color. I had to look at many photo references to get the snow right, but I love the effects that the glowing lights has on the cool night.
