Margo Lemieux's spring was enlivened by a family of 3 foxes in the backyard. This colored pencil drawing on Canson paper captures the mischievous character of the smallest. The poet Jane Hirshfield wrote in her poem "Three Foxes by the Edge of the Field at Twilight:" One never moved, except to turn her head a little as we walked. Finally we drew too close, and they vanished. The woods took them back as if they had never been. Ending… Something looks back from the trees, and knows me for who I am.
