An Oil Painting of an American Deer

"White-Tailed Afternoon"

6" x 8"

oil on Raymar canvasboard

While we were at Fremont Lake in Wyoming late this summer and looking for a camping spot, you could have seen me leaning across to the driver's window capturing this quiet moment in the woods near our campsite.  That late afternoon sunlight was just edging her ever so slightly, otherwise she blended into the woods.  I love sneaking a peek when they think you aren't looking.  Got to take more peeks while walking the dogs.  Painted from my own photo.



Visitor

There has been a doe and twins - White Tailed Deer hanging around, but like the turkeys, we haven’t seen them in awhile.  Yesterday, this visitor happened through the yard.  I think it may be one of the twins.

 

These are taken from the window…Notice that flying white tail. When they go bounding and bouncing across the landscape these bright white tails are like a pointing finger.  HERE….WE…ARE!!!
