- #DoodlewashDecember2021: Arctic Fox.
Did you know that during the winter months, the Arctic Fox is considered to have the warmest coat of any animal in the world?
This painting was a challenge because I was with someone who kept pushing my arm as I painted and who managed to splash a large amount of water onto the painting halfway through.
I almost decided to just toss it, but there is a feel to this I like, so I kept on, and I’m not unhappy with the result. I’m not exactly happy, either, but it keeps me looking at it. Any painting that keeps you looking is worth keeping!

Just love your Winter Fox! You managed to paint it, despite push, splash, and all. I may need to order that Allegri set to get results like yours.
Thank you, Kathy!The arctic fox survives in harsh conditions. I guess it’s symbolic that this one was painted in trying conditions, lol.
I love this fox! His soft fur in protective coloration that makes him meld into the snowy background. And that intense forward stare that absolutely rivets you in place. Brava! Sandra for using the obstacles and the accidental “wash” to this foxes advantage!
Thank you so much!
