Good morning, just have been working a few days on this miniature oil painting, on a 3″ x 3 3/4″ x 1/8″ Masonite hard board of a mule deer buck seen in September 2003.

In this miniature painting titled, ” Antlers In Velvet ” was a beautiful mule deer buck seen in Theodore Roosevelt National Park, South Unit, in September of 2003, standing in the blue green sage brush, looking directly at me. Painting this miniature in oils is harder than using watercolors because takes a day for the oil paint to dry and when painting in watercolors dries fast as I am painting so I can continue in one sitting until the painting is completed. A lot to learn and most importantly is the quality of your 000005 brush a 0003 brush is too big and the tip needs to be very narrow for the minute shapes in this small a painting.

I am going to list on ETSY this morning and the fee with the original miniature painting, the miniature easel, my Letter of Authenticity and a premium 5″ x 7″ card print with envelope is for $67.00 delivered to your door, “Free Shipping, via Priority Mail and you will receive in 2 days once payment is received. The painting sides are all painted and is lightly varnished to protect the paint finish, and makes for a wonderful gift. If you have questions please let me know. Thank you once again, for visiting my WordPress Shop and Blog, with hope,

Best wishes,

Jimmy Springett wildlife painter
