"When the spring sun goes down in the desert, a badger comes out of her burrow. As she goes exploring, she encounters all sorts of other nocturnal animals"  This is an original interior illustration featured in "Badger of Sandy Ridge Road" - one of the Smithsonian's series of "Backyard Books" published by Soundprints", 2005.  Lovely and beautifully rendered in oil on gessoed paper, in landscape format (2-page spread), 9.5" x 24.5" and signed in logo initials bottom left.
