One of my favorite memories will always be of glimpsing sheep roaming the hills, moors, beaches and roadways throughout the western coastal counties of Ireland. It’s been a few years since we’ve been able to travel there, but in my mind’s eye, I can still see these free-grazers standing their ground or running with their specific “gang.” And no place was sacred – they easily navigated church cemeteries as well marched confidently down the main streets of small villages.
This week’s painting is another Liltie – Moor Springtime, 4” x 6” (framed with double matte is 8” x 10”) captures a mama ewe and her lamb high on the Irish moorland.
