Tail of White

We saw this doe as we came around the bend in the trail. The Rocky Mountains east of Stevensville, MT are in the background. Tree on the left has fallen due to work by the beavers.

I was asked to do this painting based on one of my reference photographs of a fall scene, with a variation. The request was to replace the yellows of fall with greens in the painting to match the color scheme of the livingroom. Cottonwoods and aspens trees line many of Montana's nearby rivers.
