Dec 1.
Greetings December, you feel so different already.
I overslept dreaming of foxes when my own fox-dog Pearl awoke me with her "something is out there" talk. You see, she sleeps by my head on the big pillows meant for reading. She is my guardian. She looks like a gray fox. Husband and I sat up and looked out the
window to see a real live fox, majestically posing in the drive, flanked by dark twisted oak limbs, in the halflit blue of early morning. The fox and I locked eyes, then suddenly I knew what I am doing for Advent this Christmas...make a drawing each day of something magical I see outside. My drawing hand is rusty and in need of an assignment. I look forward to tomorrow...I'm going into the woods up the creek bed to forage greens. I wonder what I will see?

Fabulous! What an adventure ... I can't wait to see what you see!
And that's inspiration on December 1st!
I can just picture the limitless inspiration around you right now. Looking forward to seeing what you see everyday. This fox looks very aware and unafraid. I like!
It's an amazing drawing, Stephanie; really, really like it. I've never seen a fox, or a bear, or a wolf... although the wood is near. Some day!
Thank you lovely ladies, Thank you so much!
This feels right, what i've been "waiting" for... an assignment! I am excited to continue the tale. today? a trip deep into the forest to forage for winter greens and berries.
Come friends, let me show you something....
Oh, I wish I will see a free fox in real life sometime. Lovely drawing Stephanie :)
I love your little fox. Can't wait to see the rest. What did you use - ink? watercolor? It is hard to tell but I love the outcome!

Rosamund, i used ink and gouache.
You all make me realize how rare and special it is to be so close to the wilderness!
