Fox in the Big Woods - the process

Just finished this piece today, it's called "Fox in the Big Woods". I've posted pictures that I took throughout the process of creating it so you can see the steps I go through. They are a little mixed up, but maybe it's more fun to sort them out! I usually do a painting in one or two sittings - this one took about 6 hours to finish. It's a pretty good sized piece too. I like to work fast and always have. My Mom was always telling me to take more time with my pictures when I was little. Now I spend a lot of time working as an artist, but generally still like to work fast on my pieces. Somethings never change I guess!
