The Woods

My name is Henry and I decided to make a picture about nature made from nature. So I went outside my house and also to the woods to search for possible things to use. I became inspired when I spotted two leaves and realised they looked exactly like fox's ears. So I decided to create a picture about a fox in the woods. I used homemade paint for the fox, which I made from turmeric, and pebbles for his eyes and nose. The fox is peeping over a bush made from moss and a rose hip. There are three snails in front of the bush, and one more on the fox's ear! The snails are walking on a path made from ground pepper. There are also two worms, made from stems, digging into the path. There are two trees made from sticks and moss. There is a bird on the tree made from a leaf and some grass. I also made a cloud from a small conifer branch. The background is also homemade paint, made from blended spinach. I had great fun looking for natural materials and putting them together to make this picture. I hope other people like it too.
