Velvet Morning


Painting completed in: 2017

There is a small tree lined ravine that is about 100 yards from the road that I feed my Cattle on and most mornings the Deer are watching from the edge of the woods. When I drive away after feeding my Cattle the deer come up and feed with the Cattle. I named it Velvet Morning because the Buck's Antlers are in the Velvet Stage and the fog is soft as Velvet.
