“On many occasions as I’d make my way through dew-soaked woods, I have been startled by the sound of bounding hooves and the sudden flash of fanning white tails. The event is sudden and done within a heartbeat but the accompanying thrill persists way longer. Those repeated thrills have propelled me to paint this version of what is a fairly classic theme for animal painters. My version was to portray the vaulting deer against a vivid mosaic of fall colours, with sunlight creating a dappled effect in the foreground. This in the end proved to be quite a challenge, frustrating me with countless reworks. However today, I am very satisfied with the results and grateful to have given in to my desire to paint this classic scene of white-tailed deer.” Claudio D’Angelo
