a painting of a sheep standing in front of a lake

My new oil painting. A Herdwick Sheep from Cumbria in the English Lake District. These are very famous sheep. You will see them all over the Lake District. Even roaming freely on the roads and stopping traffic into Wastwater’s village at the head of the valley. We often went fell walking here when I was a child. My father and I even walked the full length of Wastwater along the opposite side of this deep dark lake. Around massive boulders and slipping down loose scree. Following the faintest sheep track towards our goal. The ancient church at Wastwater Head.
