Axis Deer Spotted Deer Chital Mugs

Axis Deer - Spotted Deer - Chital by Debra Martz I hate to admit that I shot this beautiful deer....with my zoom lens extended to 600mm on my camera and from the comfort of my camp chair. While their is a deer hunting season which includes the Axis, I only shoot with my camera. The Axis Deer was introduced to Texas in 1932. They are native to India where they are called Chital or Cheetal. They are also referred to as spotted deer. I captured this image and others of these beauties, on a summer day in South Llano River State Park near Junction, Texas. On one morning, a herd of aproximately 40 moved through this wooded area at our campsite. That was a wow moment!! Also, see my website www.debramartz.com

The soft interplay of light and shadow accentuates the delicate features of the chital deer, showcasing its gentle yet powerful presence. Each stroke of the artist's hand has expertly conveyed the creature's quiet strength and inherent connection to the natural world. Ideal for wildlife enthusiasts and those with an appreciation for the sublime, this Chital Deer Art invites you to marvel at the intricacies of the animal kingdom.
