Description
White deer were a gift to a ranch that is about 20 miles from where I live about a 50 years ago. They either got loose or were set loose, and wander around in their own groups. I have seen as many as a dozen in a herd. Even though they aren't indigeous to this area, they are protected from hunting. The Maya Indians, in central America, see the white deer as magical. I do, too. I always consider it a good omen to see them (unless they have gotten into my garden).
I used electronic "brush strokes" to create an impressionistic effect I wanted. If you click on an area to see the brush strokes, the largest composition I am doing is 50% of what you will see in the enlargement. If you feel like you need some magic in your life, you may want to have this in your home.
