"STAG AND DOE IN FOREST" This was inspired whilst on a walk with my wife in a forest near our home. The sunlight filtering through the trees made the scene seem amazingly calm and serene. It was a such an amazing sight and one which will be remembered for a long time. I can still sense the silence and the wonder that we both felt. This is one of my eldest son's favourite paintings and he will not let me sell it, despite a number of very attractive offers! Most things that hold true value to us are worth much more than money, my sons love of this painting, I believe, demonstrates this without doubt. I, of course, will never sell it. It is his forever. Not for sale. In private collection of Mr. J. J. Perry
