I've finally finished what will probably be the last sheep picture I'll make (well, for a long time anyway.) It was commissioned last November, so I haven't been exactly enthusiastic about it, but I've persevered and it's done at last.You can sense the reluctance with which I approached the stitching and I did work on it in fits and starts. But this sheep does have "it." What I mean is that there comes a stage in working when the image transcends the technique and the toil and takes on that certain magic of life and personality.
It's only a smallish picture -30 x 40cms but I'm satisfied that my final sheep is not too bad!
