CATALOOCHEE KING

                                                       
                                                              12" x 12" Oil on Canvas

Another in the on-going oil and acrylic series as I paint our beautiful elk roaming the valley.   We are told the best times of day to see and photograph these majestic creatures  in the Cataloochee area are early morning and late afternoon.   They are also active and moving on cloudy days and just before a storm.   We have been so fortunate to get good photos here in Maggie Valley as well.
Cataloochee King actually posed!  He knew he was gorgeous!  This painting is available at
Crafted In Carolina Gallery here in Maggie Valley.

  3. Thanks so much, Hilda! This fellow was fun to paint! These elk paintings are smaller than my usual pieces but work better for the gallery. Your comments always mean a lot!
