I enjoyed watching these two fawns as they grew up on our former property on Black Mountain in Siskiyou County, California. The male fawn grew into a handsome buck we later called Isaac. This scene was done of one of their favorite resting spots. Over the years we saw many fawns raised on our property.

I watched this deer grow from a cute fawn into this magnificent buck. He was a resident on our property on Black Mountain in Siskiyou County, California. I called him Isaac. The background oaks are the Oregon White Oaks typical of Northern California and Southern Oregon. They provide shade to keep the deer cool in the summer, and they offer abundant acorns to keep the deer well fed throughout the winter.
I experimented with this painting and did this as a watercolor under-base, with gouache layered on top to give it an opaque look.

I painted this scene after seeing a Mother Black-tailed deer gently kiss one of her fawns in our front yard on Black Mountain, Siskiyou County, California. Our property was a nursery ground for many of the mother deer, so we were often treated to a half dozen new fawns every year who were raised our property.

I painted these two fawns who I often saw resting in one of their favorite spots. Since it was in our front yard, I saw them often, and of course, I watched them grow into adults.

This painting of a doe and her fawn was inspired by the abundant Black-tailed deer that often raised their fawns on our forty-acre property on Black Mountain, Siskiyou County, California. I’m not sure why there were so many dear there, but I suspect they felt safer there than in a lot of other places. My husband and I witnessed thirteen generations of dear raised there, so we had the great joy of watching many fawns grow. Because the area had many Oregon White Oak tree clusters, it was common to see the deer browsing among the trees. It was quite beautiful to see, so that is what inspired this painting.

I was hiking in the Sweetwater Mountains near Bridgeport, California when I came upon this meadow. It was autumn and the aspen were in full autumn glory and a dark stormy sky was looming in the distance. It was an incredible contrast between bright yellow and dark blue, and it made an impressive scene. I included this hearty Mule Deer buck ambling through the meadow to add a focal point.

This watercolor depicts several Black-tailed Deer resting in an abandoned farmstead in Yreka, California. The old Locust trees on that old farm were huge and gnarly. That farm later became the site of Fairchild Medical Center.

I depicted this Mule Deer peacefully at rest in a golden field in Yreka, California. It was an old homestead with magnificent trees. I was particularly fond of this stately Ponderosa Pine, so I coupled it with this partly concealed Mule Deer. I was lucky to be able to explore this old homestead for many seasons before it was paved over and replaced by the Fairchild Medical Center.
