Fawn

There were some wonderful surprises in the new home we moved in. Seems it comes with a dozen deer or more. Some of them are quite tame and will follow my car up the drive, hoping for some carrots. My first week here, I was alone while my husband was busy moving our things from out of state. Imagine my surprise when a doe and her twin fawn peeped in the window at me. These three sleep in the yard, and watch me. If they hear me in the kitchen chopping anything, they think it's for them. While they don't eat out of my hands, they will come within a few feet to eat. Perks of living up in the mountains and having lots of woods around you. Hope you don't mind deer photos and paintings; they are going to be in quite a few of my works posted. This is a digital painting, not a photo manipulation or software auto transfer to art effect. I used my Wacom tablet & pen with Corel's Painter X to paint this work. More deer to come...

wow!! how sweet!!

Artist Reply: Thank you Marika! I will miss the deer that loved to come visit me, as I have moved into our new hour. So far, I've not spotted any deer, but hope to. Spotted rattlesnakes, & some wild pigs. Somehow, they're not the same. LOL! Still, deer are all over out here, & I've large stock photos I took for future uses for more deer paintings.

Artist Reply: Thanks Blue Doll! I am learning more each painting or schetch that I do. I am studying books and self teaching myself to work with real mediums I haven't used before as well. It is helping me with the art software, and visa versa.

Lovely or great picture and style!

Artist Reply: Thaks Jerry, less details, but I liked the way the brush strokes were more traditional in style for this one.

Artist Reply: Thanks Julia! We're renting a place until we find a home to buy. We've a house to build out of stae that may take a couple of years to finish, but I love the perks of this home. It is a paradise for the eyes.
