They also have the ability to shut out the cold and the rain to survive the harsh moorland conditions. Melody seen with her painting and an Exmoor Pony in the background, posing on hills above Porlock, it is very common to see these lovely animals when we are out walking.

The post Exmoor Pony Painting in Oil on Canvas first appeared on Melody Art - Exmoor.]]> A Father’s Love – Exmoor Stag Painting https://melodyart.com/product/fathers-love-giclee-print Tue, 01 Aug 2017 13:06:04 +0000 https://melodyart.com/?post_type=product&p=1098 "A Father's Love" is an exquisite representation captured by artist Melody using the medium of oil on paper. The artist impeccably portrays the elusive beauty of an Exmoor red stag amidst enchanting moorland surroundings. With astonishing precision and delicate brushwork, Melody brings to life the magnificent creature—the epitome of strength, grace, and elegance. Standing tall with majestic antlers reaching towards the heavens, this noble creature exudes an aura of regality. Embedded within the artwork is a narrative of paternal care as the stag stands protectively, exuding warmth and tenderness. Through this masterful artwork, Melody beautifully encapsulates the essence of a father's nurturing and unwavering love for his young.

These magnificent animals roam wild on Exmoor and in the rutting season, around October, can be see with herds of deer of 50 to 100.  They are an inspiration to paint and we may spend hours watching and photographing them prior to painting. Please follow this link to visit our blog and to see Melody talking about her inspiration for this painting.
