“A little fox sat upon the beach earlier this evening,” from York, North Yorks, told What’s The Jam.
The artwork was completed on the South Bay beach, Scarborough, on Wednesday (25 Feb).

The artist has recently returned to beach art after dabbling in light painting.
The cute fox drawing is accompanied by the words: “Run wild little one.
“Grow strong, stay free.”
