Narrative (alt version):
This spirited wildlife painting brings to life the quick glance of a red squirrel as it pauses on a tree trunk. The vivid greens of the forest provide a vibrant backdrop for the squirrel’s textured fur and watchful eyes. Created in class at OKC Paintingpalooza 2025, the piece reflects both Hope Blakely’s passion for animals and Marco Aguilar’s inspired design.
