This was a commission for a lady who had had a chance encounter. She was climbing up to the Long Man of Wilmington on a wild and windy Spring day, hoping to see a red kite, but they were a no show. On the steepest part of the climb she happened upon a fox skeleton, with a beautiful sun bleached skull. At that moment a red kite rose majestically on the thermals right next to her.
