Inspiration for this work came from the animals of Ireland, quiet and observant, living close to humans yet remaining a part of their hidden world. The image of the fox becomes a symbol of caution, attentiveness and natural freedom. Its presence is both subtle and confident, reflecting the inner state of the artist. The forest and its inhabitants unfold as a metaphor for personal space where one can feel harmony, renewal and belonging. The contrast between the concealed, mysterious world of nature and the artist’s inner calm creates a deep emotional layer that connects the outer image with personal experience. The use of gold or copper tones emphasizes the sacred quality of the image, strengthens its symbolic meaning and links the figure of the fox with natural energy, making it a guardian of quiet places and delicate states of the soul.
