Description
Young Buck in Misty Morning Light watercolor by Conni Schaftenaar
Last fall, a friend gave me a photo he had taken of a young antlered buck in a field - he took the photo from his car pulled over on the side of the road. The mist was still on the fields, blurring everything out, and the deer was a semi-silhouette against the foggy background. I got that photo printed on metal for him and it turned out great, but I decided to try to capture it in watercolor.
I flooded layers of color and used a tissue to blot out color, creating the misty areas. I painted the deer and then added the foreground. He now has the painting, too!
