Description
The werefox is a supernatural creature, a shapeshifter that transforms between human and fox. Unlike for werewolves, legends of werefoxes are not common in European folklore (though there is one ballad called Reynardine). In Native American legends, there are many stories of shamans that could shapeshift into foxes. In Asian folklore, they go by the names Kitsune, Kumiho, and Huli Jing; though, in those legends, they may have nine tails and be more of a spirit rather than a creature.
This particular work started as a test image for a much wider scene that I did called "The Last Fox Hunt" (https://daniel-eskridge.pixels.com/featured/the-last-fox-hunt-daniel-eskridge.html), but I liked it also as a stand-alone work of art.
Thanks for looking!
