"Winter Solstice" By Angie Livingstone, The Glittering Fox

Introduction

This is my eighty-first piece inspired by Angie Livingstone's magnificent artwork.

I also used this painting for my sixteenth piece, which you can read here. This also appears in the book.

Our book, "The Art Of The Glittering Fox", is now available on Amazon throughout the world, and Volume II will come early in 2026.

This is an Ekphrastic Terzanelle

The music is "Ring Out, Solstice Bells", by Jethro Tull.
