"The Hunt"
8"x10"
oils on canvas
July 2012

Details: [link]

In medieval and renaissance times, they said that in order to catch a unicorn you had to use an innocent young girl to lure the unicorn out of hiding. It would momentarily forget it was a wild animal, and lay in the maiden's lap, allowing for the hunters to trap it.

I wanted to illustrate an instance where someone didn't want to give the unicorn to its captures, and instead hid it to keep it safe, preserving the innocence of both involved.

I like this story, I know I would feel awful if I did that to a poor little creature like that.

I'm not that great, but your's is awesome! Job well done.
I work with acrylic, but have never tried oil. I believe oil gives greater results. Maybe I'll look into it.
