Fox and Crow art, “The Fox and Crow” is a limited edition giclée art print reproduced from my original felt landscape artwork. It features a beautiful fox sitting in an autumn woodland, looking up at a crow perched on a branch, inspired by the British countryside.
MEDIUM: Limited edition giclée art print from an original felt landscape artwork
STYLE: British wildlife art / felt landscape art
LOCATION: Yorkshire woodland
SUBJECT: Fox and crow / autumn woodland / British countryside
The Fox and Crow was inspired by a stunning fox photograph by photographer Kelli Lewis Sutherland, which I combined with an autumn woodland landscape I had previously photographed near my home in Yorkshire.
I loved the idea of bringing the two images together to create a woodland scene with a little story of its own. The rich autumn colours, the watchful fox and the crow perched above create a quiet moment in the countryside.
The artwork captures the warmth and tranquillity of an autumn woodland, while also telling the familiar story of the cunning fox and the crow.
Foxy foxy cunning and sly
Spoke to the crow way up high
Although the words were dressed in cheer,
Truly they were not sincere.
The crow did laugh
At fox’s words
But to his surprise
The crow dropped his prize.
The fox then feasted,
His head held low,
And off he slipped,
Through the autumn glow.

What is a giclée print?
Pronounced “zhee-clay”, giclée is the French word meaning “to spray”. Giclée printing is a high-quality fine art printing process using archival pigmented inks to produce excellent detail and rich colours, with prints designed to last for many years.
PLEASE NOTE: FRAME AND MOUNT ARE NOT INCLUDED.
Slight variations in colour may occur between the printed artwork and the image you see on your screen.
Drawing on my Fine Art degree, I create my felt artwork using merino wool and other fibres, layering coloured wool in much the same way a painter uses brushstrokes and paint.
Once the design is complete, the loose fibres are transformed into felt using the traditional wet felting process. Hot soapy water and friction open the tiny scales on the wool fibres, allowing them to bind together into one strong piece of felt. During this process, the artwork naturally shrinks by around 15–20%.
When the felt has dried, I use needle felting techniques to refine details and add definition.
