Description

This picture was actually the size of A3 but I can only submit the foto from my mobile camera cause I gave the original to my brother as a present.

These are the sheep of Leonie Swann's novel "Three Bags Full - A Sheep Detective Story" (German title "Glennkill" which I think fits way better^^).
Left on the cliff you can see Zora. She is discribed as abysmal, blackheaded sheep, who loves to climb all the way out to feed on the most delicous herbs. She is the only female sheep with horns in the herd.
The black sheep is called Othello and is a black Hebridean-Fourhorn-ram (is that the right word???) with a mysterious past. His affection for Zora is MY addition for the picture... BUT there are a few hints in the book^^
Back there between the trees grazes Mopple the Whale, the memory sheep. What he remembers once he'll never forget. He is a very fat Merino-ram with round, snailed (???) horns who's always hungry.

Well, I only can say that the BG is almost boring but I had fun painting the trees^^
The dark stripe on the top left was cause while taking the foto - it doesn't belong to the picture.

I would like to hear critics and coments^^
