Wildlife, Deer by Joan Tavolott

Normally I don't encounter wildlife except for birds and squirrels. Today while I was driving I spotted a deer by a pond, a deer right by the entrance to the highway I was getting on, and a red fox.
I figured it was a sign to do a sketch of a deer. lol This was done with my inktense pencils and water-soluble pencil.

  2. Nice sketch. I am contemplating doing a nature journal. Did you stop to sketch him right away or do it later?

  4. Oh you are the only one displaying it seems. I guess everyone is into other sites and doing things of other themes and outside walking, visiting or having company. . I know I am one of them.

    Very nice this sketch.Lynn and the color is so pretty ..

  5. OMGosh, I haven't seen a deer since I moved here. In IL we had them running through the rural neighborhood. This is great creative art on your part. Thank you. Blessings, Janet PPF

  6. Thanks Lynn, Rose, Erika, Kat, Carol Ann, JKW! I don't see deer very often, but I know they are around. It was strange to see two in different areas in one day.

    Erika, I sketched the deer from a photo. They take off too quickly to sketch them from life.
