Deer's Dance Fine Art Print

Autumn is the time when leaves turn as golden as the sun, when mist blankets the valleys like the breath of a great deer. The shortened days trigger the annual autumn rut of bucks, when they fight one another with striking hooves and bone-hard antlers for the affection of the waiting does. The bucks’ brutal dance is necessary though, as it results in the tender newborn fawns of the following spring.   “Deer ruts when the Season of the Sun transitions into the Season of the Moon,” shares Snoqualmie artist Bethany Fackrell. “This period of transition—autumn—is when Deer celebrates his own courage, displaying his strength amongst his brothers. He celebrates his success when he adds numbers to his herd.” In her Deer’s Dance Fine Art Print, Bethany depicts two strong bucks locked in their age-old dance of power, rising high on their hind legs underneath the double-image of Sun and Moon.  Hang in your office to remind you of your own strength and power, or gift to your favorite dance partner
