Chilling out in Richmond park, wip day1



I have been won over by the deer! I've put this composition together from two photos. I'm thinking I may add a further deer in the centre in the foreground. The deer is also sat down but asleep, totally chilled. I'm worried it may make the painting too cluttered, I'm going to pencil it in tomorrow and ponder! Today mostly working out my composition, I've also worked in a bit more detail on a head, wanted to work out if I wanted it paint just in gouache, soon decided to use pastel pencil too.
