Deer

This is a 12" by 16" watercolor painting on canvas that can currently be seen in Comstock Park on West River Drive at the Bargain Hunters Outfitters. I liked this picture because of the background. It is a matter of putting the color on and then washing it off. This is done many times with various colors. The extra water is taken of with a piece of paper towel. It is a washing technique. Its fun to do because of the contrast of the deer against the background.

Deer Hunting Season

Here is a painting of a white tailed deer. It is a water color pencil painting on canvas and is a 12"X16" in a 16" by 20" matte. I like it because of the way I did the back ground. You add color and than spray it away and then add color and smudge it around. Then more color and more spray. I thought it would be good to show a live deer at this point in the season. About two blocks down the street a six point deer crashed through the window of the Good Will Store. They trapped it in the fitting room and eventually had to put it down. What some deer won't do for a buck. Ha Ha but yet a true story.
