Thread: Red deer art

Hi team,

Sorry not sure if this is the right subforum.

As a side gig I do a bit of oil painting - in the past I've done quite a few fish but now that I'm getting into hunting, I thought I'd give painting a deer a go!

Does anyone have any thoughts on whether there might be a market for bespoke deer oil paintings? Or limited edition prints? I was thinking something along the lines of painting people's trophy deer based on photos where they weren't able to get the deer quick enough to a taxidermist.

I've done the below painting of a red deer and spent the morning getting prints/frames, if anyone has any views on any of the combinations that would be great! My Howa 1500 for scale. I've got plans for a fallow buck next.




Cheers!
Chris
