I took a trip west last year and under a gumtree sat this beautiful dog. I took several shots of him and when the owner came out of the shop talked about "Mutt". He use to run the sheep until his age got too much, so now he lays around in the shade and follows him around when he feels like it. A great dog's life.
When I got home and downloaded the shots one showed this somewhat surprised look and gave me the idea for this drawing. I called it "Oh Sheep!" A spin on what the old dog thought about working those sheep ever again.
It is 16X20 unframed all in graphite on smooth drawing paper. I tea dyed the paper for an aged look after this photo. I just thought it was fun and a nice memorablia for the trip west.
