Painting Sheep VII: Completed

I decided to paint the background and the ewe's face a bit softer than I have in my last several paintings. For the majority of it I used a paintbrush and then blended with my palette knife.

And then it was time for my palette knife. There is just something about a ewe's thick woolly coat. I love the challenge of interpreting it on canvas.
