Urban Fox

Feeling Nostalgic today. This guy is over 5 years old and was one of my first works when I started in LSAD in 2010. My drawing style has changed a fair bit, love of furry foxes - still intact !

New Week , New Adventures...🐾 . . Above is a recently commissioned drawing portraying all the wonderful memories and favourite things about a human, gifted by their other half , to help lift them up during recovery. . Art is Powerful and lasts longer than grapes. Just saying! #art #gift #drawing #dog #pet #friend #illustration

I'm the type of person who likes to be busy. Always, I'm working on something, and luckily, more often than not, I'm working on something creative whether it is in the art world or the interiors world. I like many feel so much pressure to constantly be busy , and if I'm not I feel something is wrong or off centre. . Most of the last 6 months has been busy , for many reasons and has been filled with lovely commission work which is so amazing and I'm so grateful for - always and always - getting to work with some brilliant clients. ...But it feels like ages since I made work just for myself just for the sake of making alone. I am planning on soon going to be taking a wee break from commission work and hope to focus on just making work for no reason but for the love of the practice ( not sure what yet , or what about , but I'll figure it out, or maybe I won't) . I am grateful for clients and customers who are so patient and allow me this space but dont feel you can't discuss your future project with me. I always love to hear from you even if just to say hi ☺️ . Prints and Original work as always readily available to purchase in my store on my website see link in my bio. #Planning #Artwork #Creative #WatchThisSpace #helenagrimesart
So, I felt there hasn't been enough foxes in my feed lately, so I'm sharing this detail image of ' Brush Over ' , a limited edition etching. The brushed texture from gently wiping on and away ink with muslin onto the copper plate, where the tail is just worked a treat on this one. Each piece had it's own unique monoprint making them all originals in their own right. Thats the beauty of traditional Printmaking. #Fox #Printmaking #Art #Painting #Orange #Teal
