Pandalana Williams

Spirit Fox, Oil Painting

2019

Artist Comments
A curious fox sits in a regal pose and peers off to left, the light of the moon shines on its thick coat. Complex palette of orange, blue, green, purple and white. "I painted in a style of spontaneous realism to capture the heart and imagination," says Pandalana.

About the Artist
Before approaching the canvas, Pandalana Williams uses her vivid imagination to picture her subject in her mind's eye. While envisioning what she wants to paint, she imagines herself seeing it from all angles or playing it in her head like a movie. She especially enjoys painting from life, either from a still life she sets up or from plein air painting. It is not just an object to me, or just a place, but something that has created an emotion, she explains. When she paints, she enjoys listening to chamber or classical music. Normally, she spends about four hours a day in the studio but also enjoys taking walks in the woods with binoculars in tow.
