Fox

fox

This lady I know has "the gift". It's hard to explain exactly. She is this wonderfully chill aging hippie who will gaze at you dreamily and suddenly ask you if you really do like living in a big city. And you will have to shake your head in wonder, because you have been puzzling over that very thing for the last three months.

She doesn't ask it in the way one would begin a casual conversation, but rather it feels like she can root around in your mind and find something you were not expecting her to.

She knew I sewed without asking me. She knew what I looked like before she met me.

So while I've been playing around with new techniques, I did a quickie of her as one of the seer-foxes from Redwall. I'm rather pleased with the result.

Thank you, love!

I loved the Redwall series as well. At this point there are several I haven't read, I'll need to make a big trip to the library and schedule a sit-in.
