Many of the photographs she takes of wildlife are snapped in the Welch’s Richmond backyard. “It’s a subdivision but there’s nothing behind our house but trees. I can walk out the back door and feel like I’m in a rural area,” Geneva said.
Still, opportunities for trapping wildlife on film are wider at Maymount where fox dens spill over with young and beavers construct their engineering masterpieces in a wooded sanctuary set in the heart of the city. But Geneva’s favorite animal setting is in Flint Hill at the home of her husband Roger’s parents, Roland and Arland Welch. Recently, she spent an afternoon hilltopping with the Rappahannock Hunt for a glimpse of her top model, the red fox. She didn’t see any but came away with a roll of snap shots that she plans to turn into hunt scenes. She has four in progress that she hopes to have finished and hanging in the Corn Crib Gallery by Thanksgiving. And while the hunt field appears in the paintings, it’s the fox that’s the star, laughing as he outwits his human and canine adversaries.
