Quick and very good.

So often the best way to depict animal life - I'm not keen on very laboured, doubtless extremely accurate, renditions (though I've done a few myself: it's one thing saying you like this way of working, quite another to summon the courage to actually do it).

Thankyou Lewis, Yes Robert it is quite scary, but the results are much better I think.!

Like this Valerie.

A really good quickie!

Like this a lot Valerie, you have captured a very intense stare as if the fox has spotted some movement.

Very effective Valerie, less is certainly more.

Just enough to capture the essence!

Really like this Valerie, some very good brush marks.

That’s a good quick study Valerie.

So good Valerie

A lovely loose study Valerie.

Valerie, you are a master of understatement. Less is more. This is sensitively done and beautiful.

Effective piece, very good style.

Thankyou all so much for your comments, I appreciate every one of them !

A great result Valerie, this is lovely!

Valerie, your interpretation of the subject is so beautiful. A charming and effective watercolour of Mr. Fox.

Thankyou so much Sarah and Fiona, you know I am a great admirer of both of your work

A very quick study, straight in with brush and watercolour no drawing first.
