I don't think you'll find better looking sheep than this breed of supernatural grazers, who live on the blasted shingle meadows at Orford Ness, Suffolk.
This acrylic is slightly larger than an iPad and is not quite finished: I need more definition
i.e. more darks but it is 100% better now the background has been changed to a sandy yellow.
I will be eradicating the wink.
The photo below is not the exact one I used for reference
but I can see more of the snout on this one.
The painting below was done quickly as a dark underpainting, then painted over and it lost its vitality
but not all of it. The trick now is to reinstate the darks, eliminate the fussiness and then decide when it is finished.
I am quite pleased with this one.
