Kathy, What a wonderful piece of art. I love the way you left some of the grey in the deer themselves. This is a piece you can be very proud of and I know the new owners will love it!

Thank you all, for looking and responding with such heart warming comments. I sure hope my client friend likes it as much as you all. I have created other work for him only in the form of a oil painting of their Search & Rescue dogs--all three of the dogs posed together. They were so pleased used a photo of the painting on their Christmas cards and jam label last year.
Well, again THANK YOU,
Kathy

Kathy, I also really like the colouring you achieved through the wood and the burning very nice. Also thought the bullet hole was interesting. I am sure the client will love it as much as we all did. Really like and appreciate your work. As was said before it is very inspiring. Will be watching for more of your work.

Kathy, that is an absolutely magnificent piece of art. It would be extremely difficult for me to give it up had I carved it and I usually lose interest in a piece once it is finished.

The way you placed the deer on the wood makes it look like hills and mountains in the background. Great work!
