We wonder what she is watching, for the look on her face seems somehow sad and thoughtful. Secreted away in a favorite spot sheltered by thick pine boughs, the beautiful white wolf often comes here to rest, and to observe the events of another day in the wilderness as they unfold all around her. She is safe from detection here, for her thick, plush coat of winter white—meticulously detailed by artist Linda Daniels—blends perfectly with the sunlit snowdrifts on the forest floor.

Ms. Daniels treats you to a moving portrait of the majestic white wolf for the sixth plate in her Timberland Secrets collection. By subtly furrowing the brow above the wolfs light brown eyes, and by adding the slightest upturn to its mouth, Ms. Daniels has created a facial expression that touches the heart. What is it that the wolf studies so intently in the distance Ms.
Daniels leaves that for the viewer to decide.

"Tranquil Retreat" is the perfect finale to
Timberland Secrets—rather than creating a sense of closure, it creates a feeling of wonder, for this white wolfs secret will always intrigue you. Enjoy your beautiful new plate!

The creation of the fine collector's plate you have just acquired and whose authenticity is certified by this document is the result of work by many skilled artisans. After the plate art was created in the United States, a fine ceramic transfer, incorporating pigments carefully chosen to faithfully re-create the vibrant beauty of the artist's original, was created in France and Germany and permanently fired into the fine Japanese porcelain plate body at more than 1,460° Fahrenheit by craftsmen and craftswomen in the United States.
