We have a herd of mule deer on our property who bed down year round in the high grass between the pond and river. I can be in the field while in the studio; look out the window, keep tabs on their activities and use them as models.
I have several sculptures of mule deer in progress in the studio: one of a running buck and another design depicts a small grouping of does.
Indigenous to the west, the mule deer gets its name from their large mule-like ears. I photographed this doe and yearling yesterday. Later in the day we had eleven does, young bucks, yearlings and fawns outside the studio.
