Description
I was reminded of the city of Nara in Japan as I painted this. Deer are sacred there, and so they run about in the streets and parks. When someone offers them food, they have been trained by habit and hundreds of tourists to bow back to the giver of the food!Related content

I love how you've managed to give the deers (gazelles?) their own personalities. The regal one with the wings is particularly impressive.

Yep.. I saw a tv program from this park.. Looks lovely cos all deers have a lot of freedom.. Well ... 'freedom'. But there were so many of them and make all children happy..

Actually, they kinda scare the children! I didn't know weather to laugh or rush in to help the poor kids. Oblivious parents would buy some wafers from vendors for feeding the deer (who of course stayed far from the vendors for fear of being beaten off with sticks), but as soon as the wafer was placed in the unsuspecting hand of a child, the deer would mob the kid to pluck the whole package away as quickly as they could.

So the program I watched was kind of fake 
Propaganda! buuu.. I dont like it

hehe. well, i'm sure that does happen sometimes. The deer are just very aggresive. They tried to eat an ice cream cone right out of my hand over my shoulder. And it's not a park -- it's the whole city.

beautiful...
I love the one wing'd dear. [yes, dear.] I have a thing for horns and long faces.. purdey beings. ^^ And this dude combines such qualities with an elegant set of wings, them being unique in looks twell.
The deer look so rolly polly and content. It has a nifty atmosphere.
that is one heck of a cool city!! Im going there. I love the idea of finding humanish like qualities in the natural world, however 'artificial'.
^__^ tails!
.. it seems to me almost as though this is taking the idea of the bowing deer, and implying it to an actual performer, yet the roles reveresed. Yet the image insipred the thought of the japanese town.
each image creative and well presented. but you know that.

This does look like a child's Illustration, but I think this would be much cooler as a wall mural! That'd rock! (aka, this Is great lol)

One of these days I would love to do a wall mural! I think that will have to wait until I buy my own house though.

Once again, your work simply amazes me. This honestly looks like an illustration for a fantasy or children's book, it's so clean and professional. And I love the whimsical feel to this. Ah, your work inspires me to try harder! I hope to be on your level someday. Keep up the great work! You are one of my favorite artists, and I can't wait to see more from you.
