yoga with his woodland friend
we have a family of fox in our area
I rarely see them
though one night i looked out my window
just in time to see one on my steps
under the full moon light
with grace
it flew down my steps
then my snow path
across my frozen pond
disappearing into the forest
all illumined by the full moon
~
I like letting my world influence my art

What a beautiful dance! Your secret friendship is only seen by the moon, the snow, the trees and:I hpoe the whole world!!!
ReplyDeleteYes, let’s trust the magical moments in ordinary life spread to the whole world. A lovely thought Dori, thank you!
DeleteLove the art ♥ We have fox here but rarely see them either. I do hear them at night sometimes when I take the dogs out for their late night business or the early early morning business.
ReplyDeleteI am always amazed at the photos some people get of fox. I think they are mostly active at night and I mostly see their tracks in the snow.
DeleteTammie, I just love your art. You have such a unique style, and it makes me so happy.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your most welcome visit.
fondly,
Penny
Thank you Penny, as an artist to have my own style is a wonderful complement.
DeleteBonne année, chère Tammie !
ReplyDeleteGros bisous. ♥
Happy New year to you too.
DeleteWhat a lovely story Tammie.....and a reminder to shape up with yoga!
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday!
Ruby
Yes, yoga is so helpful.
DeleteCreative inspired piece so interesting!
ReplyDeleteThank you Christine.
DeleteIt always feels like an omen of good luck when I see a fox. Your drawing is lovely, and it makes me think of trying to do yoga when my dog is around to "help".
ReplyDeleteI also love seeing a fox. Mostly I see their tracks in the snow.
DeleteMaybe you will do a yoga piece with your dog?
Your narrative sounds like the beginnings of a book ... a lovely book, because fox families are wonderful to behold ... beautiful, graceful and shy. I am enjoying your art for the first time and find it quite pleasing. I look forward to more about your fox in the future :)

Fun to consider it the beginning of a book, thank you.
DeleteThank you for enjoying my art.
I love brother Fox. And your sighting -- how beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jeanie.
DeleteWonderful creative and unique ~
ReplyDeleteWishing you a Happy Week ahead ~ ^_^
Thank you Carol.
DeleteWhat a sweet watercolor painting. What a treat it must have been to see the fox in your yard. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteYes, such a treat to see the fox and a surprise.
DeleteThank you for enjoying the painting.
what an amazing sight you've described of seeing the fox. And I love how that has translated into your painting. It's such a delicate balance we need to respect: us and the rest of nature.
ReplyDeleteYes, life can be a delicate balance. Thank you for enjoying.
DeleteI love the yoga mat having an earth scene. This is another very serene painting. The fox is almost giving a blessing. A happy and peaceful 2017 to you.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of the fox giving a blessing, it feels like that to me as well.
DeleteI think this is the 3rd or 4th yoga mat i have done similar to this. I find it fun and would be lovely in real life.
Oh this is lovely!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Bunny.
Deletea wonderful image. Love the way you got inspired to this art. When I was younger I was able to do this pose and know the fox is keeping the balance here :) Well done!
ReplyDeleteimpressive that you use to do this pose. i have never been able to do it.
Deletei think you are right about the fox. Thank you for enjoying.
This is so fanciful and gentle. I think the boy must know the fox very, very well.
ReplyDeleteLove the yoga mat.
yes, i sense they are friends.
Deletethank you for enjoying the yoga mat and more!
I am very impressed! This is such an exceptional illustration. As Sheila already said, so fanciful and gentle!
ReplyDeleteThat's when the best art is made, to be inspired and it shows! It's a lovely drawing Tammie, please don't tell me that you can do that pose! I used to be able to do that easily when I was young without a moment's thought, a lifetime ago! ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy new and creative 2017 to you!
Jess xx
So nice to have you stop by Jess.
DeleteI can not do this pose, never have.
Wishing you a lovely and creative 2017 too!
sadly the only time I see foxes around here is when they are run over :(
ReplyDeleteyour art does a good job at capturing their playful spirit :)
Lovely post and artwork, Tammie. Foxes are beautiful but I rarely see one around here.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, your fox is beautiful! I would think that foxes are very good at yoga. :)
