The Cascade Red Fox is a critically endangered subspecies native only to the high alpine environments of Washington State. Set in Paradise Valley on the southern slopes of Mount Rainier, this piece illustrates a quiet, vulnerable moment between a vixen and her kit among native Beargrass and subalpine Lupine. The title serves a dual purpose: it names the literal geographic location of the habitat, while also reflecting the idyllic, untouched beauty of the scene. With population numbers dangerously low, this painting serves as a conservation narrative, emphasizing that in this fragile alpine "paradise," every single kit represents the future of the lineage.
