The Royal King Fritz of The Forest Commission

The Royal King Fritz of The Forest Commission oil on panel, 36x24”
in his most perfect home. 

You all know by now, I am super particular about the commissions I take on. I won’t take on anything that doesn’t inspire me , I won’t enjoy painting it and it would probably fall flat. 

I was so excited to bring Liz’s vision of this magical fox to life and even more excited to see where he gets to live.

I feel so grateful to have collectors who make room in their lives for my work and also share theirs with me. This is what Liz wrote:

“Take me to the place --
Where the white trees grow.
Take me to the place --
Where I only know.

In my home --
Where the shadows run tall.
I am king --
Neither big or nor small.

My world is mine --
My breath is free.
I am strong --
True royalty.

So come with me --
If you’re dark and alone.
When you feel lost --
You can share my home.

Your world isn’t perfect --
I don’t expect it to be.
But when you feel sorrow --
You can gaze upon me.

In my home --
Where the shadows run tall.
You can be king --
Neither big nor small.”
