This is a 16 x 20 oil painting of a Stag in the early crisp morning, with some frost on his rump , chest and face. The painting is painted as the reference look, with depth of field. The stag in focus and the background some what blurred.
The red deer is one of the largest deer species. A male red deer is called a stag or hart, and a female is called a hind. Of the deer family only the moose, elk and Sambar deer of China.
The male (stag) red deer is typically 69 to 98 in long and weighs 350 to 530 lb , while some species can weigh just over 1,000 pounds.
Only the stags have antlers, which start growing in the spring and are shed each year, usually at the end of winter. Antlers typically measure (28 in) in total length and weigh (2.2 lb), although large ones can grow to (45 in) and weigh (11 lb). Antlers, which are made of bone, can grow at a rate of (1 in) a day. While an antler is growing, it is covered with highly vascular skin called velvet, which supplies oxygen and nutrients to the growing bone.
