Winter White Tail

The sky is an endless white plain.
Snow falls in silent drifts.
Miniature clouds coat the fields,
muffle the wind,
soften the calls of birds.

Hidden in this world
of white and quiet,
a stag.

He is waiting,
patiently biding his time,
for that moment
when
stillness and silence
has passed.

    This painting is reminds me of Japanese sumi -e. The mood is tranquil yet the stag’s posture is alert and ready, listening and aware of its environment. Beautiful work.

    Thanks Helena! I was trying to go for a painting that was simple and dominated by white. There is a cornfield behind my house that deer hide in. I liked the idea of the deer blending in with the environment, and used that image to create this piece. I am glad you appreciate it.
