When the tree branches are iced over, they are beautiful and sparkly.
This is my attempt at a frozen branch. I like that the little markings on the tip of the branch look like a sloth face 🙂

Arctic Fox
This white fluffball of an animal is related to a other foxes, wolves, and dogs. One thing an Arctic fox can do that its other relatives can’t is change the color of its fur depending on the season.
Naturally, they have thick white fur in the winter months, but other times of the year Arctic foxes have brown or grey coats. Their winter fur is the warmest pelt of any animal found in the Arctic, enduring temperatures as low as -70 degrees centigrade, or -94 degrees Fahrenheit. I cant even imagine . . . brr!

We recently had our first measurable snowfall, and the trees looked gorgeous!
Hope you are staying warm and cozy!
Happy December!
Hello, friends! If you are from The States, I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving. Life has been crazy busy lately but it is all good.
I’m going to try to follow along with the Doodlewash December prompts each day this month, despite all the Christmas hubbub; hence, this little pinecone for December 1. I have so much fun back in my little craft corner of the living room and am grateful to get back to splashing some paint in my sketchbook. Thanks for stopping by!
Chipmunk
How is 2019 treating you? We’ve had an eventful few weeks of weather so far with snow, ice, snow, wind, too much rain, and more snow. Then again, it is January, after all.
Multitude of birds and squirrels have visited the feeders all winter, but the chipmunks are busy (or not!) hibernating. Therefore, this one will have to suffice until the spring. Stay warm!
Cardinal on a Snowy Branch
Cardinals are one of my favorite birds, and I love how their colors pop in the drab, brown winter landscape.

A friend posted this photo on her Facebook, so to thank her for inspiring my painting, I am going to send it to her in the mail. Hope she likes it!
