Deer Camouflage

On a snow canvas, 
trees paint the shadows: 
Horizontal swooshes. 
Curves up a hill. 
Blankets of blue and purple and gray.
Nature's final 'painting'- 
a camouflage for deer.

I started this painting last year in the midst of our 110" inches of snowfalls but thought better of finishing it and sending it out. The recipients had had enough snow. With hardly any snow this year [so far] I finished it.
