Art Themes - Foxes of Grand Lake

This is a commission for artists who are more comfortable with wildlife realistic drawings. It is relatively open ended. It is meant to be a challenge to mix two art styles. For example, one possible image would be Aussie M. Skunk and I (Vicki) are playing golf and we notice a family of "real" foxes watching us from the side of the golf green. Also, to highlight the sights of one of my favourite vacation sites -- Grand Lake, Colorado. A site that is known for the foxes that visit the town and the golf course.

Additional Information

Any map showing Rocky Mountain National Park will show Grand Lake.  It is the western gateway city to the Park.
