Updates from the OzFoxes Studio
10 years ago
General
There has been a lot going on lately at the 7-Acre Wood. Some of it has been rather frustrating: our car radiator blew up; Margaret is staring down the barrel at impending carpal tunnel surgery; and Robert unexpectedly blew out his foot - though we're hoping that's only a bad strain. Fair to say, such distractions have kept us from being as productive as we'd like. Such is life.
On the upside: the hillside location of our home means we were safe from all the recent drama known locally as "Ozarks Under Water." Familiar venues and main routes were washed away in counties all around us, as detailed at:

And, as seen in the photo, cute wildlife still snuggles in safely around our studio. Nothing is more inspiring to us or more exciting for our feline kids than a random critter showing up outside the window.

Creatively, we're keeping up with our Faux Pas updates, and the weekly Patreon-exclusive update on "Tales of the ShadowWood." On the latter, I'm putting the finishing touches on page 24, fully halfway through the saga of Megan and her friends.
Completely separate from the comic creations, I've been spending an occasional coffee break doing a *very* rough draft for an illustrated text tale featuring Marsha RedFox. This semi-soap opera tale includes kidnapping, brainwashing, attempted murder, and evil prince with marriage on his mind, a powerful villainess, and... well, imagine an episode of "McGuyver" or some similar 80's TV show, and you've got the general idea.
Other more mainstream WIP include a gouache painting of Marsha in a medieval gown admiring a rose; the annual Faux Pas calendar; and plans to release the "Inner Vixen" art on posters -- and possibly some new t-shirts via Cafe Press.
So, Life goes on, and we go with it - taking the good with the bad, the exciting with the mundane, but always with appreciation of our friends, fans, and the ever-present wildlife outside the studio.
